I'd like to gift a pb632 to my parents, who are not that good with electronics.
They got a pc years ago an recently thanks to better connectionspeeds, ssh and other GUI tools I can assist them, "whenever" they have problems. Before that I had to help them each visit and that was frustrating.
I think you can turn automatic brightness control.
For remote page turning problem I managed to create software for PC and Android.

Android: https://github.com/wloszynski/lazy-pocketbook-android

Switching light on and setting brightness, or opening book you will have to create event sequence for touch moves (for example turning light on will be: open options->turn ligh on -> close options). I can help you with that. Opening books remotely is possible, but it will be difficult to accomplish, as far as I know, it is not possible to open book via ssh (with command like 'open Romeo and Julia'), but I will check it.

As I said before if you need any help, let me know.
Cheers!
