I still prefer epub for several reasons.
I don't like the book title on top, but I do want to see the page numbers. This view however leaves you with a blank line or 2 where the book title would normally be. If you use full page, where you eliminate both the title and page numbers, it doesn't happen and you do get full use of the entire screen without that blank space at the top. It's not extreme though and I could live with this if it was the only problem.
But what I can't live with is that every single page has the bottom showing 1 pixel of the top of the next page's text, and then on the next page, the tops are cut off by that same amount, and I haven't found any way to get rid of it. Surprisingly I never see the problem I've read about from others where the right side of text is chopped off at times. The 2 kepub screenshots show that bottom chopped text.

That, and faster page turns are the main reasons I stick with kepubs.

I don't see this happening anymore in my epubs at all, perhaps GeoffR's patch fixes it? The 2 epub screenshots are the last paragraph at the end of a chapter.
Page turns are only slightly faster for me on kepub, not enough to make any appreciable difference while reading.
