I still have the old home screen.
I only use the home screen when trying to sync (the firmware) so "new" or "old" shouldn't matter to me.

I suppose I could have lived with the new homescreen. If I had to. But when there's an alternative? No.
I like having some control over what shows up on my device. That's the same reason I don't want all my Kobo books to automatically download or sync. I can appreciate how those are useful features to many people, but I really feel that they should be optional.
I don't really want to see advertising on a device that I have paid for. I know where the Kobo store is if I am in need of any recommendations. I don't even so much mind the little box for previews which I can click on at the bottom of the screen. But advertising that takes up a significant chunk of real estate on my screen? That's a different matter.
