I have to agree with cgsmom. I switch from left to right to both often without thinking. I also have inadvertent page turns with a paper white as I move my hands around while reading.

I was at B&N yesterday. The nooks are one side of the customer service desk with no signs, and the small nook demo wasn't charging so it was dead. The large nook was charged up, and it was very nice to use. The buttons were better than on my old nook e-ink, and the screen was also better. I assume the little nook would have been similar.

So I liked the hardware better than my kindle paper white and old nook e-ink. But, the hardware isn't the whole picture. The software, the online experience, the ease of content transfer, the ability to backup content on my own computer, syncing all your content between devices, borrowing a book from the library.... the so called "ecosystem" is part of it for me as well.
