How do you come to this conclusion from this poll is beyond my comprehension  |
I'd say "you're the only one" but there seems to be a few of you, so I really have no idea what the disconnect is here. Perhaps you can explain it:
If one would choose to have
physical page turn buttons, does this not imply that, at least some of the time one would
prefer not use the
touch screen for turning pages? Is turning pages not a basic
purpose of a reader? If one could not find a reason to
prefer non-touch for at least
some purposes wouldn't one choose the "more touch more better" option?
Have not the several respondents who said they'd ideally like some additional
buttons, like 'back' made it plain that they'd
prefer non-touch for those
purposes they explicitly stated? Have not several people besides myself said that while touch is really handy for a lot of things, when we notice that we fail to get the results we want from the touch interfaces we use (like fat-fingering selections) we'd
prefer a
non-touch option to achieve that
purpose?
I admit I only speak one language, but I thought we were all using English here, and in English I cannot think of any way to interpret all these words and comments other than as I have. What are you seeing here that I'm not?
All I'm hearing back, repeatedly, ad nauseum, is "Touch is clearly better and none of your arguments change that."
p.s. I've always wondered why the smiley guy in the 'help' graphic looked grumpy. Now I understand.
