Yeah, I should have been more precise. I meant "randomly switches to the next or previous page", and of course it's not random either, it's because a fly landed on it (seriously happened to me regularly in some regions), or a drop of sweat fell on it, or the scarf gently brushed over it (different locations, obviously), etc.
Also, it's just nice when I can hold it in the middle (not only the edge) without it switching page. The hardware side buttons were perfectly fine, and (as the other poster observed) are now a ridiculously expensive premium feature!
Unfortunately, a used Kindle 5 is now sometimes offered more expensively than it used to cost new.
> tend to last me a long, long time
Yes, they do - lamentably I tend to lose them. That's why I'm stacking up on the old one :-)
