Heh, I do this all the time, and I don't even carry an e-reader.

Scroll wheels suck, trackballs are worse. you don't need a wheel.

Active eye sensor that turns the page when you get to the bottom of the page. hows that?

Since there is no real need for pagination in e book, I would really like an ability to scroll in smaller increments and maybe even have an auto scroll for those of us running on treadmill.
The other important application for it would be if you reading technical document in landscape mode, in case the illustration is positioned in the middle of the page and you don't want to piece it together in your mind.

Agreed. It's one of the few things I miss about mine.
