the question has been asked many times but Kobo support staff seem most reluctant to discuss the possibility of an SD card image being provided.

I asked staff at A&R over the phone today and they have simply suggested contacting Kobo technical help. This certainly does not instill me with any degree of confidence, though I did send an email.

I am truly not keen to go down the USB path with the increased risk of bricking my investment. The firmware updates I have done in the past were all simple files and not via USB.
