The beauty of this comment is that it highlights one "I wish they'd make that" product. A cuesheet/map/navigation/GPS Brevet APP for the Kindle paperwhite. Ideally the device with the paperwhite display would also have a camera so you could submit your receipts or proof of passage electronically to your RBA. A device like that would easily fit in the map case of your handlebar bag and replace several sheets of paper and in principle should allow you to flip between them without having to reach inside your bag at all.
