Hi Ed,

I hadn't heard of a switch-adapted Kindle before.  Would you mind sharing
how/where one would make/buy one?  Thanks!

Well good luck!

In my experience there are not particularly good/reliable page turners.
The Zygo one is still available but expensive.  I had a lot of
experience needing to get parts for it.

There is/was a MyTurny, and one other that I just saw that only works
with Magazines.

All of these are $1000 or more, or the zygo is at least $3000 or more.

Why not a dedicated computer and/or switch adapted Kindle?

Subject: Page turners

I have a client who wants to use a page turner. She is not interested in
computer e-book options. Does anyone have an opinion on which page
turner is better, works better, needs fixing less often? Is there an
option to use a wireless switch with either of these, she wants to be
able to keep the switch on her chair and roll up to the page turner.

Thanks, Shannon
