Touchscreen fine, but don't take my page turn buttons please!
I don't mind touchscreens, when it's on my tablet computer.

On my e-reader, Kindle, I don't see the point. I have the Kindle because I cannot stand reading e-books on my tablet computer(iPad 2). It really makes my eyes hurt after 10 minutes. Reading on the Kindle is a real joy. Still not as good as reading a real book but close enough.


I also prefer the page turn buttons. (unless Amazon invents a sensor
that tracks my eye movement and automatically turn the page
1 second after my eyes focus on the very last word of the page...

is this too far-fecthed or will we see this in the not too distant future?)
