From what I've seen, the Nook is plenty fast already. Does anybody think that after the latest round of updates, there is an appreciable difference between all these models?

Thanks for reading this far! Any input would be appreciated.
I'm a Kobo touch owner using the latest firmware.

For page turning, the Kobo is plenty fast. It does have nasty bug at the moment: some menu options appear to take forever, but when you tap somewhere on the screen, you then get a refresh, but then the tap may trigger another another action unintentionally.

I also get a lot of dead taps when turning pages.

If your thinking of the Kobo and not in a rush, I would wait to see if the next firmware update fixes these "problems".
