I like the keyboard for having a place for my thumbs to rest, and I'm not joking! I hope to see future ereaders go back to a bit bigger bezels. A small frame around the screen is hard to hold for long stretches of time.

As for actual typing I would rank: Touch > Keyboard >> 5-way controller.

As for turning pages I prefer pushing buttons. I might like the touch screens more if (a) they simply worked better, and (b) I could customize the controls. I want to say that they need to go with more sensitive capacitive touch, but I've recently played with IR touch devices (star boards to be more precise) and know that IR can be handled much better than the ereaders do.
