So while a touch screen has bigger zones, it doesn't necessarily work better than the buttons would. On most readers, at least there are page back and page forward buttons on both sides of the screen.

I have never understood why they don't put a page forward area on both sides of the reader, and page back in the dead center. I think most of us page forward way more often than back and it would make either handed using easier on short thumbed people.
