Another small piece of me has died.
I find I rarely use the buttons - a gentle touch/swipe [always important in all walks of life, don't you think?], of minimal distance, with whatever thumb's in the right place at the time, on the 650 or 350, seems to work for me.

[ 'Course, that could go to prove buttons are unnecessary anyway on a touchscreen - but we are an old-fashioned lot at heart I s'pose...... ]

[Make that decent touchscreen.....]

It's probably pandering to Mankind's basic "belt & braces" attitudes.
