I miss the super clarity of the older readers — I’d love to have an IR based touchscreen again. When I pick up my wife’s Kindle 3 I sometimes lament how we lost some of the benefits — the improvements of the new ones outweigh what we’ve lost, but I feel like some combination of old and new would be far superior.
