A jailbreak tweak calledAutoScrollsolves this problem by implementing automatic scrolling into iOS. After beginning to scroll, your handset will continuously scroll at the same speed you scrolled. With three different speed settings, you can comfortably use this tweak as you need for any purpose you can think of.
