I don't know. My finger rests on the button. When I want to turn the page I apply a little pressure. I have to do more to swipe then I do to push. I fail to see how that is a better method. Then again, I don't like touch screens so I am not likely to understand the love anyway.(shrugs)
I would be surprised if more then 10% of Kindle and Nook owners would be willing to give up the WiFi or 3G connectivity. It was one of the original selling points and I dare say that it remains a very important selling point. I can buy books where I want when I want. It is really nice to have that available.
Clearly it is not important for most Sony users, you wouldn't buy any of the 300/350, 600/650 e-readers if it was, but I think they are the minority of e-book reader users. The numbers here at Mobile Read are way skewed. I have seen a ton of Kindles, a few Nooks, and many an IPad in the wild. I have yet to see a Kobo and I know two people who own a Sony but have never seen one in the wild.
