I got some sluggish annotation and control issues with other formats. I think .kepub has the best compatibility with Kobo machines.

About the inaccuracy of touching, I don't have that issue at all. The control is quite accurate in my opinion. Maybe you can try manual factory reset in the official link. Hope it can solve the issue.
All my books were epubs from Calibre using the Kobo Touch Extended plugin. They all work fine on my other Kobos -- H2O2 and Clara.

The touch screen problem was just really weird. It wasn't the usual kind of thing where it's just a bit off. When it was off it was really off but in a very precise way, so that touching the far left side of the screen half way up might bring up settings instead of paging back.

I still want to order the 32GB one but I'm trying to hold off for a while.
