To have a firmware update downloaded to your Touch via the Desktop Application you would have to 1) attach your Touch to your computer via the USB cable, 2) start the Desktop Application, and, 3) select the reader icon and do a sync. Have you tried this?

I had the same problem but then I turned off my Kobo and turned it back on. Never had the problem again.

Any possibility of future updates to improve PDF performance?
