I'm wondering about the battery life too. If you're using rechargeables, are you sure they're fully charged? If they've been sitting around a while, they could be losing a lot of their power.
You can attach a wrist or neck strap to the JBL if you're concerned about dropping it.
I too usually hold the JBL in my left hand and use the slider with my thumb. Seems like the simplest way to do it.
I haven't had any issues with the page turns slowing down, and I've got some 1000+ page books loaded.
