Kindle 3/G. Auto page turn?

I used to read on ReadManiac on my cellphone.

It had the awesome feature of auto-scrolling

It appears Kindle1 had a similar feature but is no longer in K2+

The only option for auto page turn in K3 seems to enable TTS and take the volume to zero. But since TTS is actually working in the background, this eats up the battery.

So on Kindle 3, is there a way for auto-page-turn without enabling TTS?

[QUOTE=ovaldisk;1700195 I just read a cool and useful new feature on the upcoming Kindle 4. Apparently
it has a [B]front facing camera.[/B] No, it's not used
for photos or video chat. The camera tracks the movement of your eye as you read.
When you eye has focused on the last word of the page(right bottom corner), the
new Kindle 4 will automatically go to the next page after a 1-second delay. This
means you no longer have to manually press a button to go to the next page.
(this feature can be turned on and off, but is shipped turned on by default)



Since my KSO 3G was purchased only 10 days ago, I'll probably return or exchange
it for the Kindle 4, based on this featuer alone.[/QUOTE
