I would say this is a software problem, since I saw the same thing on my old Kobo Touch using the most recent software for the KA1 (firmware 4.0.7523). One thing I observed was that even though the selection seemed to be off (for instance the one handle was located in the middle of the word I intended to select, and the second handle was located in the middle of the next word), the dictionary showed the entry for the correct word.
The other strange thing is that this behaviour has stopped all of a sudden. I do not know when this change happened, but now selecting works again as expected.
