Having to stretch your thumb and/or reposition the device to turn pages is a bigger pain if you've got carpal tunnel (I have gloves that restrict movement).

Mind, if e-ink readers allowed greater customization for page turns, it wouldn't be as much of a problem. On my PRS-350 running PRS Plus firmware, I had single tap for both right and left margins set to advance to next page. If only the PRS-350 had front light, it would've been perfect.

That said, the Nook's restrictions are a deal breaker for me given one of my primary uses is sideloaded content. I use a PW3 (Manga 32GB, jailbroken) and a Glo HD (64GB).
