That's the first time anyone else has mentioned that "short delay" before turning pages, which makes the pages on my Sonys flip faster than on the Kobo Glo. But when I try to swipe on the Glo, it can take 4 tries to do it and it seems to need more of a deliberate slow even swipe. The touches work better but not doable if you're holding the reader in your left hand.

And then there's the times when I wait for the delay, finally swipe or touch a 2nd time, and I advance 2 pages.

Do you remember what firmware version did not have the delay? I'd like to give that one a try and see if it stops my page turns.
