Also, it takes at least 5 minutes for my Kobo to process new books. Is this normal?
- Collections.—I would like the ability to group books into categories. Otherwise, I'd be happy with a 'saved searches' function since Search on the Kobo Touch is pretty quick.
- Featured/Recommendations/Shortlist.—This must go! If customers paid full price, there should be no ads, retroactively or otherwise. I'm using the Shortlist option since it's least ugly BUT my Shortlist is reset EVERY time I sync with my computer!
- Less taps to pull up Dictionary and Translate.—Would it be possible to have buttons instead of a menu when one long-taps on a word? Also, I noticed that the deeper I get into a menu the more pixellated the screen becomes.

My wish list was only one item long before 1.9.16 firmware came out. Now I have two items because I can't always turn a page with a tap because it doesn't recognize it. Previously I would miss-tap about 1 in 50 times. Now it is 1 in 4 times - and some of those are 2nd or 3rd tries when I am "really" trying to turn the page and being more conscience about it. It bugs me because I never had the "double page turn" problem some seem to have and that caused this to be adjusted to something that annoys me now.
Horizontal Tap regions - top 1/3 for page back and bottom 2/3 for page forward so I can read righty or lefty and switch my hand holding back and forth whenever I like.
Selectable Touchscreen responsiveness. - so I can fine tune it to my tapping touch.
