A fair criticism, however its pretty overrated. While reading, these buttons do not bother me nor anyone who I know to have used it. Before I sit the thing down I just suspend it (an easy operation on the keyboard). Therefore picking it up has no accidental page turns. Resume (or "unlock" if you will) is also trivial and instantaneous.
The reset of the ergonomics are very good: button/scroll wheel locator, thumbboard with easy-to-get search button, etc.
