We look at the size of Koboroot.tgz, but there must be something else. How could the kobo itself or the kobodesktop know which firmware to download??
Probably it's a too much simple though, but I think that there is something that identify our kobo and it can't be so hidden.

But mine is only "a shoot in the dark"
Kobo wants you to use their automatic method to load the new firmware, so they are uninterested in making it easy, or fool proof, to sideload the firmware.

They must be using the serial number to determine the version.
