I guess I'll have to get my library's Kindles and knock them on the wall a couple of times to be able to compare durability with my Nook. :P
On the buttons being stiff on the Nook, they are, but the touch-screen comes in handy for page turns (if it's in my right hand, I touch the right side of thumb to screen; if on left, I swipe across; easy-peasy).
As a guideline, I have weak thumbs. I was using a replacement buttons-only phone for a week when my iPhone was in a temporary coma, and I swear I got cramps in my thumbs everytime I finish messaging someone.
