I'm using the eDGe as it is intended and I'm happy with it, but I have a question.

I'm reading the e-ink side and the LCD is turned all the way around ( facing the opposite direction ).

If the eDGe is in my lap and my body is touching the LCD screen (it's in my lap ), does this affect responsiveness from the e-ink side when I use the stylus? It's seem to respond slower ( sometimes not at all ? ).

Can I turn off the LCD screen so that the touchscreen does not react to any touch?

Thanks.
