Red face Reading in bed can be hazardous to your health!

As a frequent bed-time reader, I often find myself dozing away with a book in hand. The Sony Reader has made this a bit of an interesting experience.

Twice so far, I've woken up with the reader under my shoulder, which is fine, but a couple of times I actually dropped the thing on my face, not just once, but repetitively.

See, as I doze off, the hand holding the reader droops down until...

SMACK! I get a faceful of Reader. Then I wake up and start reading again, until...

SMACK! it happens a second (or third) time!

Now, I have this flat spot where my nose used to be, and noseprints on the glass. What I really need now is some form of protective headgear!

Regards,

Matt
