My argument against Kindle Touch

By , December 30, 2011 6:57 am
  1. Haptic control is for more sophisticated tasks on tablets. Why books?
  2. Do you really have to spread finger sweat mixed with McDonald’s fat and dirt on your books?
  3. If you don’t annotate that much, Kindle Basic would do.
  4. I personally feel like Amazon launches Kindle Touch just because this generation has been touch-screen-brainwashed.
  5. I’m still very happy with my Kindle 3, now known as Kindle Keyboard.
