The second option is about what the Kindle Voyage is now, except the the menu area is just a thin line at top and bottom rather than a little square, so the third option is basically that but flipped. I'd like something with the forward area all the way across from left to right because I often hold my hand in a way where it's not comfortable to move my thumb far enough over to constantly hit the forward area over and over again, when holding it on the side that is the 'page back' area side. So basically when I hold it with my right hand, I tap to turn the page with my thumb and when I hold it with my left hand, I press the haptic sensor button with my thumb to turn the page.

I so rarely use the page back compared to forward that I'd be fine with no area on the touch screen for page back and just use a button or swipe for that whenever I need it. But choosing from the options in the image you posted, I could make do with the fourth option the best and it'd be better than what's on my voyage currently.
