I've done it too, but that's not the same as using the search or the dictionary. Those two certainly are zippier on the Sage than on the Libra. It may not matter to people who don't use either, but it does matter to those of us who do.

Im extremely partial to the sunken screens. There's not anything actually 'bad' about the glass screens, although in my experience its ever so slightly more diffused and ever so slightly more glare issues. This is all personal preference in the end though and I have adjusted to the PW5. That said if you want the new screen used in the PW5 but can't live without the sunken screen, most of the newer e-readers from Kobo also offer it, thats not an amazon manufactured part. Its called either Carta HD or Carta 1200 depending on how formal the reviews are being with the branding.

So it depends on the books you read, I guess.
I guess that would definitely make a difference. I don't think I run into too many books where I have to search for names.
