The ability to adjust sharpness independently of weight was removed after firmware 3.1.1. Why? I have no idea, perhaps Kobo thought their devices were just too good and wanted to remove one of their best features to give the competition a chance.

Since then there has been a combined slider that adjusts weight and sharpness together, so the text saying adjust weight and sharpness is still accurate.

Edit: One thing that irks me is that Kobo use the TypeGenius screenshot with the separate weight and sharpness sliders to advertise the H2O even though this feature was removed long before the H2O was introduced. It is like they know that it is a great feature that will attract people to buy the device, but removed it anyway.
