What they should have done is make the HOME button be a prev page button.

Then on the joystick they should have put the HOME button under the joystick rather than the BACK button. The can put the back button on the keyboard... or nowhere. I seldom use the back button on my Kindle.

I hold the 505 with one hand and the page next button is above the page previous . But, the way I hold the 505 has to do withthe weight distribution of the device. It's heavier towards the bottom then the top so I hold it middleish/just above the middle.

How I would hold the K2 would depend on it's weight distribution and given that it has the keyboard on the bottom, my guess is that it's heavier towards the bottom then the top so I'd probably hold it in a similar place as I do the 505. Thus, the easiest button to access is where the home button is and that would be the place to put the page next button instead with the page previous right under.
