You mean the two large "wing" buttons? Don't use them - I don't. I turn pages using the 5-way "D-pad" control.

I like the styling and simple button layout of the Opus, however the plastic exterior looks flimsy.
Flimsy it certainly isn't. It's very tough and completely rigid.

I think I may plump for the Pocket Pro\BeBook Mini, as a compromise. It is slightly cheaper, looks solid, has slightly better hardware, yet is slightly smaller than the other two, even if it does look like a calculator gone wrong. Plus I see no need for an accelerometer - would prefer to rotate screen via a button if I ever need to.
I'd be wary of it myself. It has some quite serious issues, most serious (for me) is the extremely poor handling of hyperlinks.
