-edit. although now that i think about it, tapping the kindle case, or clicking your fingers, or clapping, still is more effort than press a button... good job i did not go through with my initial idea then.. haha

For yourself, perhaps not - - -
but you did mention people with disabilities, some of them might find voice control very useful.
Vague + Kindle may be the only voice controllable e-book reader now available.
Note: Look for something similar from Amazon in the future - shortly before twobob released Vague, Amazon purchased a voice recognition firm.
And that may be part of the reason why the microphone disappeared from the e-ink Kindles - -
So that someone who wants voice control, will have to buy one of their high-dollar models.
All of the above is pure speculation - but Amazon is a "for profit" corporation in a capitalist country.
