while this seems logical. It's not so cut and dry.
I have the old Wifi model. I love it. But i want the touch. Not mainly cause of the touch screen.
I'm a lefty. I always held my books in my left hand. its just comfortable for long reads (i like marathon 10 hour read sessions, sleep is unimportant).
But holding the WiFi model in my left hand makes for an extremely annoying read. The navigation buttons are too far to the right to operate with my left hand thumb when holding one handed.
I was hoping with the Touch that their would be navigation buttons in a more reasonable position. Centre would be nice. That way i could hold the Kobo in my left hand and be able to turn the pages.
having a touch screen doesn't rectify this entirely, as you still need to press on the right side of the page to turn to the next page.
I really wish that there would be some form of "ambidexterity" built into these devices.
