So, you didn't read the "Welcome to Kobo" guide? Or the help? Both actually have some helpful hints.

4. Configuration options for the sensitivity of the screen. This would hopefully reduce the number of missed/multiple page turns.
Not directly connected to this, but it occurred to me that part of the sensitivity issue is that it pressing for a while triggers the highlighting. That might explain why some people feel that a light tap will turn the page, but a longer press doesn't. And there is probably a point in there which is to long to turn the page, but not long enough to trigger the highlight.

8. A setting to turn the screen landscape. Again, the Jetbook has this, and it is very useful.
Interestingly, the "Welcome to Kobo" guide has an button in the bottom menu. This has zoom and rotate options when pressed.

9. Fix the erratic behaviour of the drag-selectors. The chances of getting a clean selection on mine are very low - the selection leaps all over the page like a drunken grasshopper! (Apparently this may already fixed in the Japanese 2.1.1 release.)
I've been doing a lot of annotations in the last few days while reading a book. I keep wanting to scream when I try to adjust the highlights.
