I assure you though, that I'm absolutely trying to keep my hand as still as possible. 
I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough, it's tough to describe using just words. 
I've been reading a bunch of Terry Pratchett in epub format (unfortunately, all DRM'ed). He uses lots of humorous footnotes that that look like:
The "asterisk" is clickable, clicking it takes you to the footnote (the footnotes are usually a bunch of pages that they stick to the end of the book). It's very, very, difficult to actually click it within Bluefire. It seems like only about 1 pixel is active to be actually clicked on, and my finger is just too fat to hit it at all consistently.
The newest Terry Pratchett actually had a "reverse link" on the actual footnote page that returns to the original reading place, so if they start doing that consistently it will make a back button in Bluefire less important (but it will of course depend on the publisher to make those reverse links where a back-button will always work). |
What Bluefire needs is a history back/forward. Then you can easily go back after reading the endnote.
