遥控kindle

早上起来看书，kindle ,有木有觉得，手动翻页很麻烦。

这时候，拿手上的iphone ,ipod ,android 小手机，或者更小更轻便的遥控器，控制一下，岂不是看起书来很爽。

不过kindle 没有蓝牙，哎呀，我的大DXG， 还没有wifi。囧 o(╯□╰)o，也不知道是否可行，实在不行我拽根线呗，哇咔咔。

记得以前看过一个哥们儿，把kindle 当成树莓派的显示器。

问谷歌，

key word: remote control kindle

看到一个解决办法：大体思路是，kindle 上用cgi搭建一个服务器，然后通过智能手持设备的浏览器，登陆，然后进行翻页。不错~~

连接如下：

正当我伤心自己的DXG上不了wifi，又看到了一篇，跪了，人家直接给上个蓝牙

Hacking the Amazon Kindle DX, Part 1: Bluetooth Shell

Description
This is a software solution to remote page turn on a kindle. In brief, I am running a webserver from my kindle. This is serving a cgi script which imitates a button press on my kindle. I access the scripts from a browser on my phone.
This means that my hands don't need to be near the kindle when turning pages.

Motivation
For me, this is an ideal set-up for reading in bed: my hands can be under the covers while the kindle itself is on a stand, but I don't need. It may also be helpful for those who find it difficult to hold the kindle themselves, or to control it using the built in buttons (see, for example, this modification http://hackaday.com/2011/08/24/more-frankenkindle-progress/ )

System requirements
The kindle you use needs to be jailbroken, and needs to have physical buttons (The specific method used here simulates a button press, but it may be possible to adjust the scripts to work with touchscreen kindles as well -- let me know and I'll add it to the instructable).

I am using a Kindle 4 NT, and this guide will be tailored to that, but it shouldn't be too difficult to adapt the process to other models.

For the remote control, I am using an iPhone 3GS, but all it is doing is accessing a web page, so it should work with any smart phone (in fact, any device capable of accessing the internet within your local network -- you could even control one kindle with another, although I'm not sure why you'd want to, exactly).

Now, on with the instructions.
