(I use both 350mA and 1.0A adapters with no ill effects). It's the 5V rating on the adapter/device that is the most important, don't ever mix your voltages!
Using an under-powered charger (350mA for example) could be quite bad for the charger, but the kobo will be fine. Depends on the quality and design of the charger.
