LOL Oh well, we all have to deal with what we have to deal with. I choose to laugh at myself. Life's too short to cry all the time.

But it was/is a genuine concern of mine with regards to the touch screen readers. I have played with them in the stores but it's hard to get a real feel with the units being tethered or anchored to a display stand so I was looking to read how everyday users deal with accidental touching of the screen.

Otherwise everything else looks fabulous about the unit - smaller, lighter in weight, brighter, more memory etc. The price is certainly attractive. An off button for the touch would be awesome but I doubt they'll go that way.
I think a case, similar to the official one, might be a wise investment for you.
