If I have to move my hand to turn the page, it's wasted effort and taking me that much closer to carpal tunnel. Hate it.

With my Nook Classic and my PB360, I read with my thumb on the page turn button at all times. Read, press down, read, press down. If I have to read, move hand, then ergonomics have failed as far as I'm concerned.

A simple "move thumb to touch side of screen" is too much to require; a full screen swipe (as some devices demand) is criminal as far as I'm concerned.

My Nook Color was modded to run Aldiko/Moon+ simply so I could use the volume button for this purpose.....

But, yeah, it's a YMMV thing.
