I became frustrated enough that I called Kobo's helpline and said I wanted to return it. They said I could take it back to the store where I bought it. Another trip to the store and the store refused return.

Kobo customer support says tough.

Not only will I never buy Kobo again, but I won't shop at that bookstore again. Lose, lose, lose.

My advice: do more research than I did about customer support. It may be non-existant. And don;t buy Kobo because they don't back up what their customer support people tell you on the phone.
I'm not sure I see the "disaster" here. You don't like the Kobo Glo because you need to use ADE? Welcome to 90% of the readers out there. I'm pretty sure Kobo Glo owners can sideload books onto their devices with ease.
