The touch-screens I've seen are perfectly fine. Maybe adding an overlay to a Jetbook would reduce its clarity -- but I'm not proposing that.

I'm just wondering if anyone is making a decent LCD reader with a touch-screen these days.

Unfortunately I fear that manufacturers will not bring one out with an LCD. Most have already abandoned LCD for e-ink simply because that's what the trend is. And many buyers think, wrongly so, that an LCD such as one on the Jetbook would be just like their computer monitor.

My advice is to get the Jetbook. Getting around in it via the buttons sometimes involves a number of steps and hand movements but it is surprisingly effective.
