I'll give you my answer. The hardware buttons are great for moving around to access Books, Docs, etc and moving down the screen to choose an item and then hitting the button to open the book. I hate the fact that I have to pull out the stylus to click the dictionary icon and choose a word to bring up the dictionary. Or enlarge the area to name a few items. It drains the battery and is a pain in the neck to always have to retrieve and return the stylus each time when a touch would accomplish the same thing.
