Wow. I must be doing something wrong. With little effort, a tap turns the page quickly to a new page of clear, crisp text. One thumb, left or right, is all that is needed -- a real plus when propped up in the bed linens.

No fingerprints to be found.
While I intend to keep and use my K3 (I consider it a classic), I love the Touch and find that reading with less physical action from my digits and thumbs contributes to an improved reading experience for me. The lack of buttons/keys makes the KT nearly invisible while reading. Perhaps I am not as critical as I think I am, but it is doubtful.
In addition, I LOVE Amazon's lighted cover. It is sleek, classy and houses the Touch securely. I have used the light quite a bit in the past two weeks and find it works extremely well and is an improvement over the case and light of the K3, IMHO.
I am very pleased.
