I definitely like having both options on a device. I suspect that the "no button" thing is a deal breaker for lots of readers, particularly special needs readers.

(I would think the swipe is more annoying for lefties, too. I love my PB360 because you can orient it such that you can hole it with either the left hand OR the right hand, with no loss of functionality.)
With my 650, there is an option to change the direction of the page swipe and I would expect one here as well.
