I've got a first generation Kindle and a Paperwhite. I definitely miss the buttons on cold nights.

With the original Kindle, I could comfortably read with every part of me except my face ensconced in warm blankets. A lobster claw like grip through the blanket easily held it in the left hand, and a bonk on the right side either with the right hand, or against my chest, would turn the page.

With the Paperwhite, I have to expose a finger (or bring the Kindle under the blanket) to turn the page.



I don't have any of these issues, but your description of how you used the 1st gen Kindle is hilarious. Thanks for an unexpected laugh.
