I don't think you have to be a "filthy person" to get stuff accumulated in the edges of your IR screen eReaders. Have you ever cleaned a computer keyboard? It doesn't take long for gunk to accumulate.

What I don't like about the Kobo touchscreen is that it is not as responsive -- often having to be touched more than once to get it to react. I've never had those issues with my Kindle Touch or Simple Touch Nooks or my Sony T2 (which also use IR screens). It has nothing to do with the gunk that accumulates along the edges. I'm almost certain it's a software issue -- as Kobo uses the same screens as the others.
