That's awesome! It's sidestepping some important elements of what I care about testing, though. You're removing the need for the reader software to detect input from the user, right, which could be a significant source of delay? And also, my own testing shows that for my device there is a HUGE decrease of latency when mashing "next page" as fast as possible. I'm guessing the reader might go into some kind of mini-sleep mode when it has been sitting on the same page for a few seconds.
