The new Sony reader was my great hope (since Amazon and Kobo have long since moved to button free ereaders) but as they've gone down the route of not including a built in light, I'm going to have to compromise. It appears tapping the screen on the Kindle & Kobo isn't too bad, it's having to swipe the Sony that makes it that even more different to get used to than tapping a button.
What is it that you don't like about touch screen, is it just the page turns too?

Me too. I wish they had buttons to turn pages, but I'm very happy with using a touchscreen to look up words in a dictionary, highlight, etc. It was always a slow process to do those latter things without a touchscreen. And note making was excruciatingly slow on a K3 and much slower still on a K4!
