I have a Kindle and I have a Sony. You are 100% wrong on both counts.

If you had qualified either of those points as pertaining to YOU rather than to ME you may have had a chance of being at least partially correct.

Maybe our fingers have more oil than yours, or maybe I just notice finger prints more than you.

From an ergonomics standpoint, it would be hard to convince me that having to move your thumb in the way of the page area and out again every page turn could be more ergonomic then keeping it one place and slightly rocking it. Maybe some prefer it, but it seems like an RSI waiting to happen. I certainly don't prefer it.
