The touch interface is much faster than the buttons and they way they were designed makes them useless with the way I hold my Kindles and read.

And I am one that didn't care for the old page turn buttons on my Kindle Keyboard. They clicked and were so obnoxious. It wasn't a loud click, but it was just enough to be distracting to me every time I had to turn a page. Really interrupted the reading experience for me. I like the Pagepress "buttons" on the KV because they still work like buttons but they are much more subtle than the KK buttons.
I tend to hold my Kindle on the sides, so the buttons on the KK forced my to shift my grip to avoid the buttons on the side. With the KV I can hold it where I find it most comfortable without buttons in the way.
