No way to do that on a PW3. No BT and no Keyboard support (without jailbreak, obviously it has OTG as a generic PC USB-A audio stick works via a dumb micro-USB plug to USB-A socket).

The Kobo models with BT do support a BT Keyboard, but without adding a script, only scrolls pages in the notebooks or adds text when the onscreen keyboard is up. Of course the Kobo doesn't need a jailbreak. A USB keyboard doesn't work on any of my Kobos, but not sure if it's possible.

Someone now sells a wireless mechanical page turner that works with any touch screen. That plus camera and PC would allow capturing anything on anything with a touch screen. I think it could work with a button on ereaders with no touch.
