There's no way to retrofit large buttons to the Sony readers, but the existing buttons can at least be made "feelable," so that you can locate them by touch. Just mix up a small amount of epoxy cement, then use a toothpick to apply very small amounts to the key buttons... until you've built up a tiny, glossy bump on each button.
 
It's a small thing, but I find that being able to easily locate the buttons by feel makes turning the page just a little easier, as a bonus... and because of the epoxy bumps, you don't have to push as hard. And it looks as good as if the manufacturer had designed it that way! :-)

If you can't feel those tiny buttons your girlfriend must be very lonely!
