The touchscreen on the iPod touch or iPad is great for games though it certainly does have the problem of leaving fingerprints. On the other hand, the Kindle is primarily a reading device and I'm not convinced that the touchscreen would add anything to the ease of operation. The five way cursor works fine and I find the reading experience on the Kindle to be superior. I do use the iPad as a supplementary e-reader, and for that it is fine.
