yes, i imagine washing them regularly is at least partly responsible in my case as well.

I hadn't thought about the swipe direction before. I stuck with the left to right, as well. Now, however, I am thinking of giving the "pushing" swipe a try. Going from L-to-R didn't bother me on the 700, but since the 600 now has a raised frame, I've had to readjust my swipe so that my thumb doesn't encounter the rim and it feels unnatural. I know it sounds silly, but when you start getting arthritis in your thumb joints, any uncommon movements can be painful.

you know, i also am a bit annoyed by the raised edge of the frame on the 600. i don't know why they made it that way. it doesn't bother me enough to change my use, but occasionally i bump into it and think "sheesh, design flaw, sony !" i really wonder what possibly could have made them build it that way.

Thanks for the tip, Zelda (and friend)!

i'll let him know you found it interesting.
i'll be interested to hear how you like the new direction ; i obviously use that sometimes (when i want to go backwards in the book) and i don't find it unbearably uncomfortable but i still prefer to keep the left to right for what i do the most often.
