I can't get my 65 or 75 codes to work (Canada), though a 45 does work on that same book. Is there some rule about some books having max discount percentages, or is Kobo just giving out crappy codes?

Out of nowhere, I just got a 90% off coupon from Kobo. Used it immediately (multitabbing doesn't work, I need to multibrowser it), but what a weird time to send it. No point in the contest now,...

After entering about 25 times (on day 9), I got 4 usable coupons. Pretty low.

Still, I got one for the book I wanted.

It doesn't turn on in the laptop bag, where it fits snugly; it has turned on in my purse, where it moves around a lot.

I tried to complain to the person in chat. I'm also going to figure out where to send an email, because the guy was an idiot.

Time to downgrade. Which version doesn't do this? 2.8.0? 2.8.1?

I doubt that it is something they will easily put back in, but I will certainly write in a complaint.

That still doesn't answer whether or not it will keep all my other information -- if I added a new column with data, will that appear in the new library? I am glad to know the dates will be kept.

Successfull charging the Vox?

So, the Vox charger is terrible -- way too short to be usable. And it won't charge over USB, and my other chargers won't do 5V2A. So I bought one 5V2A, but it had a USB port, it wasn't a dedicated...

Yes, it can import from anywhere and in particular has successfully imported from that directory.

sdcard/ebooks would be great -- will that be customisable? If not, it's probably the best location.

Would Astro File Manager allow me to organize and display my books by genre, author, etc. since the Vox doesn't provide for this? Or is it mainly for apps?

No, you need reader software for that....
