Added to the list on the original post.

Does the Kobo still need to be tethered to a PC to get it activated and working?
Does the Kobo now work out of the box, or does it still require a song and dance to create and log in a Kobo account before it does anything?

Your last two questions are now top of my list. I already have a Kobo account (created one after pre-ordering the Glo), so I need to ensure I remember to try working it without logging in first. Still, I wouldn't personally see this as a bad thing, especially given the openness of the Kobo platform.
