Dont laugh ... but I would like a remote control.

I was at the gym the other day and while doing the cardio (stationary bike and treadmill) part my workout I often like to read. I am loath to use the Kindle because of my sweaty hands.

I realize that I could use TTS with the volume turned down and have the page auto turn for me, but I want more control.

It might never happen... but I think it would be cool if the Kindle 3 had a remote control that connected via bluetooth. Using bluetooth would also open the door for AD2P wireless headsets, peer to peer ebook transfers, etc etc.

-------------------

I want to be able to buy music from Amazon's MP3 Store on the Kindle 3.0 .... I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon is already thinking about this for the next Kindle.

Now that I think about it.... why not open up the whole Amazon storefront to the Kindle? Want a new blender? Fire up the Kindle and order one!
