I have no problems with touch screens in general, but I more often than not prefer to turn pages using the buttons rather than the touch screen.
Because then one group would have to pay for the useless gadgets of the other group.
(i.e. touch-fans have to pay for buttons and vice versa)
Also, it'd be far too sensible for our modern world.

The lack of buttons and mandatory use of touch-screens is what prevents me from getting a new reader. The way I hold it when walking (from one subway station to another) would mean I have to constantly turn off/on the device, or risk touching the screen with my sleeves(I hold it so that the screen is on the inside of my arm, to prevent it being hit by other pedestrians).
