I ordered the $79 Kindle SO.. It will be replacing my heavily used K2 3g.
I debated about getting the touch... but in the end i didn't want to have to worry about touching the screen. I want something i can 'handle' without loosing my place
(watching the videos online.. a single tap will change the page)
Something i haven't seen anybody mention..
1) The 'non-touch' kindle does not have 'Read-to-Me' (text-to-speech)
2) The 'non-touch' kindle has 1/2 the battery life listed as the touch (1 month vs 2)
These points don't bother me... since i never used text-to-speech on my K2 and after 3 years im lucky to get 2 weeks of battery
