I hate touchscreens... and I live in the "real world."
Actually, I'll be fine if Kindle goes to a touchscreen as long as I'm not forced to use it. Meaning it still needs to maintain
some button navigation—mainly page turn buttons (but preferably "Home," "Menu," "Back," and a 5-way controller of some kind as well).
And yes, I've had ample experience using/experimenting with other "quality" touch-screen navigation systems to form my opinion. It's just a preference... which seems completely "real world" to me. Granted we're probably talking a minority of users, but that doesn't have anything to do with the validity of said preference.
"Shut up and accept it's eventuality," however, seems like such a hard-line approach to take for those on the opposite side of the fence (not saying that's what
you're doing, Asawi).
