********************
Before the crash I had used the tweak feature to change the displayed date beside the books from the default year/month/date (or year/date/month - can't remember) to month/day/year (Aug 24 2012). After reading the above error I changed it to Aug 24 12 and tried again. Same problem. Perhaps it needs to restored to the default of year first? Or perhaps that is not the date the error log is pointing to? I recall using the tweak to change the dates for all the books - including the three Calibre finds.
It seems that Kobo changed the way they store timestamps in the 2.0.x firmware. What they are using isn't what the driver is expecting. As not everyone is seeing the problem, I have been wondering if it is a timezone setting. What do you have set for your time and date formats in the OS? And what timezone do you have selected on the Touch?

The date that is a problem should be the published date in calibre. I am a little surprises that this has a time in it. But, that is a PDF. Looking at the only PDF I have on my Touch, the date goes down to seconds in the database and is the same format. That probably explains it.

I will send you a private message with something to try.
