Why should it not work?

It migh work if you the kobo you buy still has an old firware version. You can update up to .12. However, the new Kobo firmware (.14) disables the kobo until you sync with the desktop app.

Do you have a link to where the Fnac firmware can be downloaded? If they have their own custom firmware, I would be interested in testing it on my KT, (even if it is in French)
