@John F: page turning is a little more slow on Kobo, but the difference is really negligible. And as I said I feel the page turning on Kobo more "smooth".
@shanghaichica: ok, events executed with buttons are faster than touch events of course. But when you search a word, after you begin the search, touch events are not needed any more. And Kobo is very slow at searching. The fact you have to load also the touch handler can affect the startup time, but not so much... the Kindle powers on almost instantly. Highlighting can be affected by touch, but only because on Kobo you have to drag instead of selecting the start and the end.
I agree with you I should compare the Glo with the Paperwhite, or Kindle Touch with Kobo Touch, but the difference is anyway suggestive. I have not found any comparison between Rakuten and Amazon products that takes into account searching, highlighting and power-on speed.
