By saying he wanted to focus on non-backlit devices he is not leaving out a general computing device. By going in the non-backlit direction he is also safe in stating Amazon is not going to chase the trend.
Touchco at the time of the buy out was working on epaper touch screens.I could totally see a future version of the kindle including a touch interface, especially if they go color epaper of some sort.
