I'd be much more interested in scroll wheels ergonomically placed on the side of the reader. My cellphone has a scroll wheel on the side; when I first got it I didn't use it at all, but now that I'm used to it I consider it indispensable.
Dear jmontyb:

Based on your biggest interest being ease of navigation, you should consider the Mentor Lite. No touchscreen or anything like that... just a good basic device with some really nice features. Anyway... take a look at my blog on the Mentor Lite: robertbEZ.blogspot.com
