The page turn buttons drive me crazy on the kindle when Im in bed and when you try and get creative with a holding strategy you accidently hit the bloody page turn constantly. that is an awesome idea, I’m going to build one maybe put some sugru on the ends to make it a bit more professional looking.

Some people find it very hard to do this because of arthritis or similar. This may allow them to continue reading at night, so I'm really interesting your solutions for a different reason. thanks.

I took a thick emery board (cushioned nail file), cut off rounded edge to square it off, applied first aid tape to end. I just poke next page with it, while hands are actually 8\ away. I put the tape on, so next page button wouldn't get scratched up. just takes a teeny poke, and next page appears! the height of laziness......

Then it turns the pages for me so I don't have to move anything but my eyes. You can even adjust the speed so it keeps up with your reading speed. I also do this when I do the dishes. I prop it in the window above the sink and just read away. Bookwormish, yes, but better than dirty dishes.
