That's a valid point.

But talking about touch screen vs physical keyboard, I don't find my Kindle slower than my iPad, when typing I mean.

The menus are faster on a touch screen device, you are totally right about that. But for novels or fiction, I don't see a major issue either, those are usually read on a continue mode or session, unless you keep changing from one book to another and you don't read for a long session. I found myself jumping a lot between chapters when reading PDFs or computer books, which I don't think it's the case for average user. But I don't usually jump or change too much of book while reading, I keep reading the same book for 30 min or so, even an hour, so I don't have to visit the Kindle's menu page too frequently.
