Just wondering if there is any way to repurpose the buttons on a K2i.

Just got mine, and I really like it so far, but the way I normally read in bed it is actually fairly uncomfortable.

I normally read laying on my right side with the ebook's flat right edge laying on the bed.

On my old Sony, the page buttons were on the bottom right and left, so I didn't have to have my hands underneath the reader holding/balancing it while I read, which I have to with the kindle.

Is there a way to repurpose the 'SYM' button or another in the area as another 'next page' button? This would basically solve the only gripe I have with it. I could swap it with the left 'next page' button (next page on the left is really weird to me anyways).

Or any other suggestions? Thanks.
