See, what I can't understand is why they can't put the nice, comfortable buttons, just like were used on the K4NTb, on the Paperwhite? The bezel is wide enough, they wouldn't be in the way, and people that wanted the touch screen could still use it. Shoot, put an on/off switch in the firmware for the buttons. And no, using the touch screen is not really an option. My thumb joint hurts when I have to move it so far to tap/swipe.
Unless they changed the firmware so that you could tap on the first inch or so on BOTH sides to page forward, and go toward the center to page back. I like to hold my reader in my left hand and reaching over the Back area to touch to turn is too far for my poor thumb. That might work, and seems like it would make sense for easier use in both hands. Hmmm.
I don't know, I still just want the little buttons back.
