Has anyone used Mobile Sheets on a Samsung Galaxy Pro 12.2 in the sun? Nearly impossible to read. I think this may be the issue for any digital music reader/tablet. I thought I could use the Night mode, but then I can't see my comments on where to go when I change pages with my pedal. I guess I need to be under an umbrella or pop-up shade unless there are other changes on MobileSheets that I am not aware.

I think you would face that issue with most LCD or LED based tablet screens. There are some e-ink Android tablets that work great even with glare, but they are a little expensive. I'm hoping over time the cost may come down and it will be a reasonable alternative for most people.

On my Samsung Note I have an anti-glare foil which greatly reduces reflections but also reduces brightness. It is really, really great for normal use but becomes a pain when used in heavy sunlight due to the reduced brightness.
My other tablet does not have anti-glare, so the brighness is higher, but it reflects like hell. Having a sun shield will hardly work since it is the reflections that kill readability.
When performing in bright sunlight I sometimes use the first, sometimes the other tablet, with varying success.
An e-ink tablet would be the best for this circumstances, I think.

collects some info about eInk devices.
Searching the web for eink or epaper might find more.
Often some essential features are missing: touch, bluetooth...
I'm also thinking about an eInk device every now and then, so I would be interested in finding a comparison table and/or hearing from users with MSP on an eInk / ePaper device
Mike,
Maybe send a note to ink tablet manufacturers, letting them know this is a nice potential market for them.
Requirements: Quik enough page turns, blue tooth, Android compatible.
