I've got firmware 2.8.1 running on my Touch. Worth checking the firmware thread to see if it's compatible with your model Touch. Not saying it's your solution, just something to try.
I'd sign out/back in, dump all the books, do a factory reset in that order and see if anything helps. Load just a book or two and see if anything improves at each stage. Preferably a book you read when you were not having trouble. I'd also try running the battery way down and leaving it on charge for a while.
Good luck!
