For writing notes the touch is awesome, but I've mostly changed my mind about it. I prefer the more tactile button turning and I find the no touch kindle to be faster, more responsive, and with no ghosting (which the touch has). Excepting the battery (which I think is a fine trade off for being a bit lighter) I think that the no touch is the superior reader and I will be selling my touch. I hope that amazon always keeps a bargain no touch kindle around.

Unless you take alot of notes, I think that the touch interface is a bit of a novelty and not necessary for ereaders. I don't think that the infrared works nearly as well as the capacitive touch on tablets either.

I'm not dissing the kindle touch, it is a fine ereader, but I find that I did change my mind just not in the way that the OP had in mind.
