Both have large E Ink displays and come with a stylus pen for writing on the screen, and both are marketed as paper replacement devices. They double as ereaders and digital notepads, unlike other ebook […]
Sony DPT-RP1 Sheet Music Review (Video)
Some people have been asking about how the Sony DPT-RP1 fares when it comes to reading sheet music, so I uploaded a quick video demo showing a few different sheet music files in action.
