Yes, I need real buttons. I don't like swiping at all after using various Sony devices for years. I was going to replace my Sony T-2 with a new Kindle and went to Best Buy to look at the PW and Voyage just yesterday. I found the swiping to be inconsistent on both devices and, even when set to "low" to maximize the sensitivity of the hepatic buttons, found the buttons required too much pressure to effect a page turn. Worse still, with the Sony I get effective tactile feedback, but didn't get the same from the Voyage.
I'm a bit disappointed because I currently buy all my books from Amazon and free them for use on my Sony reader. At some point that solution will stop working, either because the Sony gives up the ghost or because Amazon figures out how to lock their books more effectively.
