I disagree... not that I would shun touch on a Kindle... just that I think they are dominanting the market with the "big bulky keyboard" and "no touch" and "doesn't support epub" devices. Frankly, these are things that the techie few are complaining about. Mainstream customers just don't care.

The price and content availability (yes even officially supported library books soon) is enough to keep Amazon selling more kindles than the Sony, Kobo and Nook combined.

I look up words all the time. But, you don't need the keyboard to do it.
