I'm thinking of trying the new Kindle or a Nook but I wanted to get some thoughts as to whether the new Kindle or the Nook have easier page turning abilities. My sister in law says the Nook is very sensitive for page turning, a little too sensitive for her.

Any thoughts/suggestions? Do you think I'd find the Kindle to be an improvement in page turning and not a step backwards in other ways? I'm leaning towards the Kindle from what I've read on the forums here.

Thanks.
Well, I can't comment from direct experience with anything other than the PRS-505 and the Jetbook. That being said, if you are happy with the 505, have you thought about the 600? The touch screen might help with your issues. Another possibility is the pocketbook 360 -- I believe it can be set up to turn pages with a flick of the wrist holding the unit.
