I gave demos of such a GUI in 1988. A traditional Windows scrollbar (later) usually needed to be dragged.
That sounds cool, but it really needs to be on the side of the screen,where you can just use it with your thumb while holding the device.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel all controls should be on the side of an ereader to make it as easy to use one handed as possible.
