From the Bizarre Question Department: Voice Page Turning for iPad?

I love reading while on the elliptical machine at the gym, and it’s a handy time to plough through reports and PDFs using the iPad (gen 1).  However, if I’m tracking my heartrate I have to take my hands OFF the paddles in order to go to the next page on the document, book, PDF et cetera.

Does anybody know of a way that I could say “next” or “forward” or use a voice activated command OTHER than swiping with my sweaty finger?

    Did you happen to find a solution? I have a family member who was diagnosed with ASL (lou gehrig’s) disease. She is quickly loosing functionality of her limbs but still wants to be able to read.

    A voice activated page turner would be amazing, but I haven’t found one so far.

      Hi Jason, alas, no… nobody had a good idea on this one. 🙁
