No idea. Given the interest in the linux app shown on this forum and kob's support so far I would think they continue to support it. But that's just a guess. Maybe a kobo rep can comment ?

ie: He has 3 books bought through the Kobo app, can he load the Borders app and buy a book without affecting his purchased books from Kobo? Or is this beyond the realms of reality and he'd be better off just running ADE?
Again, I don't know, haven't tried, but I think it would work. I have loaded books using the kobo app and calibre. Syncing with the kobo app had no effect on the books loaded through calibre. I would imagine it's the same when using the borders/a&r/kobo app simultaneously. But only a trial can confirm that.

However, I think you're best of buying from wherever you want (eg borders etc.), but instead of syncing through the app download it directly through ADE, strip DRM, sync with calibre.
More control over the book you purchased, less likely to have issues in the future, eg when buying a new computer etc.
