I have so far read only one review of 700 which mentioned this finger swipe thing and it says that sometime you miss it and redo the swipe so infact you may waste time. can a owner of 700 chime in?

Review link is http://news.cnet.com/hands-on-with-s...igital-reader/

In the end sony 505 will fit the bill at this time because of its price.
Well there is no reason to limit yourself to swipes on the 700. It has dedicated keys for page turns as well.
