When disabling the touchscreen it says to get it back you need to press the power button to put to sleep and wake up again with another press. It also works with opening and closing the cover as it should - just tried it just to be sure. I did not have any problems with losing books or furthest page read on both Oasis 2 as others mentioned.

Isn't it great? I didn't even know I needed this, but its so nice. I like to put my fingers on the screen, like i used to with paperbooks and older kindles. It also gets me totally in the book. No checking battery, nothing. Just reading. And I can grab it anywhere.
Your wife is not alone with highlighting stuff. I fall asleep reading all the time and have all these highlights in spots i don't remember even reading.
