I don't agree with the issue with the side buttons, I find that I can hold the reader with my thumb near the lower side button and just brush my thumb to the side to move the page on, I quite like that.
i like the capacitative buttons too. just that if someone handles the device and they are not familiar with it, they are more likely than not to hold it at the wrong place. ;-(

The battery like of 4-5 hours doesn't worry me in the short term, I expect to see this corrected soon.
depends of what you compare with. devices which were out 10 years ago (like newton), this would have been considered good. but not todays devices. my laptop (and that weighs 1.3 Kg) lasts over 6 hours if i shut off the radios etc. and that is with a very hungry screen. with a technology which has no refresh cycle, one would expect way way better performance. i take flights that last over 12 hours end to end quite regularly and my expectation would be that this would last well over that time. i do hope that this is corrected soon.
