Not to be a downer here, but "just use audiobooks" is not the miracle solution that many seem to want it to be. Mainly because listening is not
reading. I'm not suggesting that one is inferior to the other or anything like that, only that it shouldn't be assumed that one is easily interchangeable with the other for everyone.
I've tried and tried to avail myself of the handiness of audiobooks on the treadmill. I can't do it. It doesn't work. Listening to a narration just doesn't fire the right synapses in my brain that reading a narration does (or something like that). An audiobook invariably become nothing more than a buzzing in my ear that I find I'm not paying attention to anymore; and finding my way back to the point where I stopped "listening" to an audiobook is a maddening experience. I want to
read the book on my treadmill ... and but for the page turns, I'm quite successful at it.
Now, I can touch the screen to turn pages without the worries of vertigo like the OP has to contend with, but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't buy the first affordable remote page-turner I could just hold in my hand and click from time to time, should it ever appear on the market.
And besides... ask yourself... do you
truly believe in this day and age (and on a board dedicated to reading with the latest technological devices/advances), that audiobooks just never occurred to someone until you brought it up?
