I had a reader program on an old Visor handheld that would sort of rolling-scroll the page. It would be very cool if any of these readers (well, especially the nook, 'cause that's what I bought) could do this.

What I mean is:

You get close to the end of the page, a line or two or three left, and you push the button for the next page. The page changes from the top to the bottom. So, when you finish the page, your eyes scan immediately to the top, which has already changed.

It's not distracting at all and makes for a much more fluid reading style. It could even like change the top half, wait a second, finish the bottom half. Or maybe that would 1/2 the battery life. I don't know.
