Absolutely. That's a beautiful compromise. Buying the book isn't an issue as my father finds it much easier to purchase books on his desktop computer and then send them to his Kindle. I tend to do the same thing. I think I bought one book from my Kindle to make sure it was possible.
There's just no reason that it needs to be an either or situation (unless someone really wants to fight over the keyboard). You should be able to go to your home page, browse for a book, open a book, and read that whole book entirely
with Touch, or entirely
without Touch. You know... user's choice. Surely that's not such an outrageous request?
(all predicated on the assumption that a separate non-touch device is just not in the cards)
