I'm not opposed to using technology to enhance some aspects of reading. At the moment I'm happy to be clicking on footnote links to read footnotes and then navigate back to my page and this is a small enhancement in a way.
It might be fun in a fantasy book to be able to instantly recall the map of the world you're in with a "You are here" mark. Or have the map able to give more info about itself - either background information or recall of what events have happened in various places up until where you are in the book.
There is the small possibility that technology can make the experience of reading more enjoyable in some way. It doesn't have to be detrimental. I would argue now that for myself reading on my Kindle is actually more enjoyable than reading a physical book.
