I like the concept of a touchscreen, just not the implementations I've seen. The plastic membrane scheme Sony uses makes the print look farther away and fuzzy. The retroreflective glass Apple uses on the iPhone is better, because it's really clear, but it fingerprints like mad. There might be a good middle ground out there, but I presume these choices are driven by sound economics.

I meant other Kobo's had the problem. I made a sample book to illustrate the issue, you can see it at this link . I'm sure it's some un-written rule of Kobo. We just need to figure it out so that calibre can work around it.
