Seriously, I know people who were forced to learn to be right-handed in order to drive the Devil out of them.
The more important question should be: do lefties find using a ebook reader awkward, and is there demand for a leftie Sony Reader?
Yeah!, I went through the mitten on the left hand, getting tied behind my back, etc. You know what? It didn't work.

Regarding my Sony: Easy, flip the cover all the way open to the back & use the button the the bottom left hand side. That's what I do, unless it's inconvenient, then I'll use my right hand and the buttons on the right. Works for me.

cbell - My mouse is only left handed. Ten-key works good with the right though!

Wetdogeared - That's pretty much the way it works.

The harm that was done to our little psyches in the interest of writing with the 'proper' hand is unbelieveable.

They may as well have burned us at the stakes for being witches.

I type with both hands! And hold my books with either the right or the left hand. Writing I do with my right hand. And my right hand is also my gripping hand.
