Yes, you can disable the motion sensor in pocketbook readers.
On the PB360, you can also install reader software that uses it to turn pages by twisting the reader instead of pressing buttons. And the wireless *can* be turned off, of course, so you can use the extra-large capacity battery solely for reading.

For large format eink readers that are actually available for purchase today, barebones or not, the options are very slim; basically Kindle DXG and Pocketbook 902/903.

Now, if battery life and LCD screen aren't a concern, there's dozens of Android Webpads and wannabe readers in the 7-11in range that cost *at most* what the KDXG costs, most less. Some even a *lot* less. The 7in Pocketbook IQ has been priced at US$130, for example.

(The 902 is priced at US$299, btw, so the WiFi and blutooth aren't adding much to the cost.)
