I ended up returning my Paperwhite. Looks like I'm sticking with the Kindle Keyboard for another year or two

Selecting the footnotes on my KK doesn't interrupt me too much, it's not ideal but at least it works 100% of the time.
I just tried accessing a footnote at the top of a page on both my Voyage and my Oasis 2, and it worked just fine. (I don't have my Paperwhite at the moment) Maybe that problem is specific to the Paperwhite?
