I just installed the Kobo app on my Android phone, and now I'm waiting because it appears to be downloading my entire Kobo library to the device.

One word: Why? I should be able to browse the books in my account, and only have downloaded the current title(s) which I'm actually reading. My phone has limited storage space, so I don't see the point of using hundreds of megabytes to have the entire library downloaded. Thank goodness it didn't try to do this download while I was connected to my 3G data plan...
