Well, the touch screen does offer one major advantage.
It allows them to add annotation, notes, dictionary, search, etc without having to bolt on a hardware keyboard.
And while I agree that a hardware keyboard is king for longer data entry's, for the purposes of the reader it should be enough.
What I'm curious about is whether it supports handwritten notes or markup? If it does, Irex is going to have a major competitor on its hands. While it may not be as accuret, it may be enough for many peoples needs
