I have this idea for ereaders used for reference books, such as RPGs rule books, recipe books, and other reference books.

A lot of times, though you made read the book linearly the first time, you'll hop around the book after you read it to look stuff up.

I think it would be cool if we have an ereader with a slider on the right side. You slide it up and down to "thumb through" a book.

Most ereaders have a version of this with the page flip and the bar at the bottom. Normally, you just tap the top of the screen and a bar comes up at the bottom, there's normally an icon in the centre which brings up miniature page previews. You can either run your finger along the bar or navigate using the preview pages. Most ereaders have a version of this.

Then of course, there's the table of contents.
