Does anyone know of an scp/sftp client for Android? I've got connectbot

I've been happy with AndFTP. It does FTP, FTPS, SCP and SFTP. I've mainly

I'm interested in this thread. I know I would use a tablet for reading
and sheet music. I tried the Nook Tablet, but the screen was simply too
small for music. Part of the challenge is imagining how else I might
use a tablet.
