Nor is the Bookeen Muse Frontlight, which has physical buttons, and quite an impressive display.

There are other fishes in the sea, but with less money to back them up PRwise.

Flush screen, waterproofing, tap to turn page, ePub supprt. If it had the carta screen at 300 ppi, it would blow the paperwhite out of the water (pardon the pun).

Oh, geesh, this Tolino thing doesn't even have a current-gen display, and yet you think it's only PR money keeping them from being a market leader???
To quote from the Star Wars radio play: "Your grip on reality is fragile, humans."
Perhaps consider the possibility that you're just wrong, and it takes a lot more ability and investment at every level for Amazon to make such successful e-readers.
