I prefer touch screens. It's more interactive, like you're really interacting with the stuff you're reading, and as a result, I find it more fun. Fingerprints aren't an issue for me because normally after a reading session, I would just swipe the screen with a cloth. It doesn't really get rid of the stains, true, but I'm not really that fussy to be bothered by it.
And yes, I agree, some ereaders do not require a swipe; just a tap would do to turn a page, and I find it easier to highlight stuff and do research on a touchscreen, as opposed to scrolling buttons.
But I do prefer e-ink readers. Less glare in sunlight, which gets annoying on an LCD screen. I saw a woman using an e-ink reader on a train today and I spazzed with envy.
But it's not like I have a choice anyway. The iPad is pretty much the only e-reader I can use anyway.
