Maybe we should think about other possibilities to trigger the touch events. I guess you browse the web somehow with speech commands. If you do, can you directly address buttons by speaking out their caption? For instance, if there is a button with the caption "page next" on a web page, can you press it by saying "next page?"

The idea is to run a web server on the Kobo that delivers a page with buttons. "Pressing" a button on the page (in your web browser on the pc) will trigger a touch event.

You can see a similar project here. The point there was to make a mouse click in a web browser and by this trigger a touch at the corresponding position of the Kobo reader. For our current project, we would limit the possibilities to a number of pre-recorded events to make things easier, because we want to give our commands without having to look at the screen of the browser and without moving around the cursor. Before I try to find out about voice controlling a web page by myself, I wait for your answer, since you will already have the necessary informations.
