Thanks for the confirmation ltr.

I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly 1.7.5 came out. Like we've noticed, it fixed the update library bug. Yet I'm still questioning what's going on with the sync feature. It seems that when I sync to the Kobo it downloads ALL books and even resets the bookmark on some, but not all, books. This makes for a very long wait whenever I wish to buy and download a single book, not to mention messing up the bookmarks of those I'm currently reading. Could this possibly have anything to do with having an original Kobo with only firmware version 1.4? I wonder if the application updates are therefore geared toward the newest firmware. If that's the case, I'm really hoping the firmware update for us originial owners is coming soon, because the only thing the application updates have done so far is mess up many of the features that once worked flawlessly! Ahhh...the joys of being an early adopter....
