I've always felt that landscape mode was missing. But, like you I don't think I would use it except maybe for images or maps that are shaped that way. One thing I did wonder about was for large font sizes. My wife was using a font size large enough on her Glo that she only got a few words per line. I was wondering if landscape mode would have been better. It would probably have been the same number of words per screen, but I was wondering if longer but fewer lines would be better.

As for the touch area, that is annoying at times though I find I rapidly get used to touching the spot that I need to rather than the one that looks like the spot to touch. I would like a mode that popped up 16 or so dots on the screen to calibrate the touchscreen like one of my old laptops offered.
My problem was that I adjusted on the Aura ONE but also compensated on the other devices. And yes, being able to do a calibration would be good.
