I believe long press is page up and page down, which is useful for jumping through a library without using the stylus.

Does holding down the MENU button do anything special like going straight to the home screen? If not, then perhaps IREX can use a held-down MENU button as a modifier key, so with the MENU button held down, LEFT and RIGHT on the flip bar is UP and DOWN. To reduce accidental popup of the real menu, they can have an option to require a double-click of the MENU button to open the menu.

But any real need for this? It may be needed if they plan to allow all features to be accessible without a stylus, such as selecting a word to lookup or highlighting lines, though they can probably use Long Press to cycle between lines and left/right to cycle between words within a line... (like on the Kindle 1, I believe).
