Collections and series aren't major things for me either.

Custom fonts are neat. But in practice, all I ever do is add Google's Literata Book font and leave it. And on Nook, I've found Georgia (which is also on the Kobo) is equally nice.

On my Kobo I set refresh to every chapter and on my Nook I don't remember how often it refreshes. Ghosting doesn't seem to be a problem on either, so refresh doesn't really matter to me.

The one thing I do miss on Nook is 'one screen equals one page' that I get from reading ePub.

I would argue that Nook isn't really missing anything important that Kobo offers. But the accumulation of small things is what makes the Kobo software nicer overall.
