3) People reading in bed who don't want to move their arms from the warm covers to turn the page (seriously, someone posted this)
4) Treadmill use. It's much easier if your arms are free to move, but okay to be holding a small wired device.
The question is, can you send a page turn event over the usb connector from, say, a mouse? It does NOT have to be fancy, just forward-and-backward buttons...
So I suppose the fundamental question is, can a page turn event be sent by usb cable device without any other mod to the device itself?

Can you elaborate on how the Kindle will be supported, or held, in your scenarios?
brettlitton's voice activated idea would seem a good candidate but as there's no response to that, does this mean that your primary quest was actually that of control via usb, rather than some other means?
