I would usually use my right thumb for it but I can't do that easily. I have to use an index finger to press the right arrow where it is right up against the case. Since the D-pad is not used during reading, it's not a real issue and would not deter me from buying another Literati.

Another thing that is not a defect but I will need to adapt to my needs is the page turn button at night. It's invisible in the dark and I need to put something there that I can feel with my thumb. Perhaps, over time, I would memorize the position making this a non-issue.
Issue 1: I agree - the black Literati is set up a bit better with more room around the D-pad. I found that using something like a pen makes it a lot easier to press the arrows - I'm thinking a stylus would be a good thing to keep handy.

Issue 2: I've read about some folks using one of those paper reinforcements around the arrows for reading in the dark. I might try using a couple of my grandkid's little stickers, they might be just enough that I could feel the spot.
