I've owned every Kindle (except the DX) and while the Paperwhite is my favorite, I really wish they would remove the touch screen page turning and add the physical buttons on the side. The touch screen works great for searching Amazon or even making short notes, but I find that I accidentally turn the pages way too much.

I would be fine with them keeping the touch screen (so they don't need a physical keyboard, navigation buttons, etc), but I can't for the life of me figure out why they removed the page turning buttons. This feels like a basic UI thing - 95% of what you are going to do is turning pages, so that should be much easier and reliable than anything else.

I was pretty shocked they removed the page turn buttons. They are the most used buttons by an order of magnitude and tapping the screen is a crappy interface as it is too sensitive and I often jump forward or backward a page when I reposition myself in a plane seat or similar.

this, a hundred times. It's not bad to have touch screen for selecting the random word or using the store, but why make 99% of the actions I do on the freaking thing uncomfortable?
