I know some people have a preference for buttons, but there's a difference between not agreeing with a design decision and not understanding it, don't you think?
I do understand that the touch screen works well. I just meant, that adding a few buttons would've meant that another group of people would've been interested in the product for a minimal amount of work/costs, therefore I don't understand what sense this particular decision made from Amazon's point of view.


Anyway, should someone else be reading this thread: does anyone have any long-term experience with using the dictionaries on the basic Kindle? Does it get annyoing?
