I think Sony really f***ed up when they decided to release the 700 as a touch screen. It's a case of too much technology interfering with what I really want to do: read a book.

There are buttons to do the page turning on the device. The touch screen can be used only when needed for functions like annotating and searching. Stuff I'd rarely do and I'm glad there's a touch screen for this functionality rather than cluttering the device up with buttons I'll rarely use.
