As part of a standardized admissions test for graduate school a few years back, we were required to copy a paragraph in cursive (NO PRINTING!) as a "handwriting sample" -- anyone who looked at mine would've thought: "Why would such a mentally challenged person be taking this test???" Trying to remember how to form some of the letters was tougher than some of the exam questions!

I was all set to order a K3 for my dad, went over the Amazon listing one more time, and had second thoughts over the control button placement on the right like that. But, if you guys say it's fine, and he'll mostly be doing page turns anyway ..... It'd likely be my far more tech-savvy (right-handed) mom who'd be ordering the books and such.

The other thing that would be great are the samples - he has Parkinsons and can't really browse in bookstores as easily to see whether he might like the book by leafing through it.
