I am right handed. I used to have a Sony Reader PRS-500. Now I have a 505. ON the 500, the side page turn buttons were on the left. I didn't have trouble with them. Just learned how to hold the 500 with my left hand. Now that the side page turn buttons are on the right, I hold the 505 with my right hand. Really, it's not all that hard to get used to using your left or right hand to hold your reader. Whichever is more comfortable and works for you is what is best.
Also, with a really large hardcover book, sometimes the best way to hold it is with both hands. So I don't see readers being a problem for left or right handed people.
