These days probably have to buy used but what are people's nominations for the best Ebook reader for those who cannot stand touchscreens?

Candidates I come up with are the Kindle DX, Kindle Keyboard, Kindle 4/5 and the Sony PRS-505 but I presume that there are a few other candidates. Based on the Kindle 4/5 model I find that without a touch screen or a physical keyboard like the Kindle DX and Kindle Keyboard any keyboard entry is a PITA so trying to take notes is very slow.

With their 5 physical keys many functions of the Sony X50 and T series units can ignore the touchscreen but far from all.
