Perhaps it got lost in all the verbiage of the original post:

CNet has commented that this is so as well, so we have some preliminary confirmation.
Hopefully our representative will be able to clarify it more.
As JSWolf said, the page turn speed is mostly a function of the e-ink itself, which Sony isn't in a position to "work on" since that tech is owned by eInk Inc. Also the controller seems to make a difference, and Sony has consistently gone with the best controller available to them for each model.
To me that 2 and 2 add up to a fairly persuasive 4 that Sony is actively pursuing faster page turns here. Are there things that they could do but aren't? There may well be, I have no visibility of that.

But I don't really think that it's fair to suggest that they don't care about that point.
