I don't know about the Kindle Touch but on my phone I am notorious for flipping pages accidentally. It has a Capacitive screen so this was also a concern for me and why I decided to stay with just a regular K4. I find the battery life on the K4 to be much better then the battery life on my K3. I can leave WiFi on my K4 and it doesn't drain it at all.
I've read heavily on my K4 I expect to receive the charge message here shortly at the end of the week if I keep going. If I read like that on my K3 with WiFi off I would have needed to charge it a week ago.
I get about 3 weeks of battery on my K3 with my normal reading habits which about two Harlequin paperbacks a week and two weeks when I on a reading kick like now.
Since I had my K4 and I've read about 3 to 5 hours a day on it (that's 6 books) Four Harlequin books and two regular size romance novels and I have left WiFi on and I expect it to need a charge by the end of the week or sooner if I read more books.
So I say the battery life really isn't a issue with the K4. Now I can't compare it to the Touch but it's better then my K3 which has been sitting on its shelf doing nothing.
