You may find that this is the 1.7.5 desktop upgrade which came out about a month ago. I was so happy see an automated upgrade come down, then saddened it was only the desktop client ( which frankly, beyond being able to shop, is kinda horrible to use and pointless, tho the reader is handy ).

Actually - I take most of that back, the client is certainly acceptable - it's the store thats actually quite horrible, with limited (and broken) search, and a rather limited book selection.

I tend to buy my books via other outlets ( http://www.booksamillion.com/ being one of the better so far ).

Really hopeing 1.8.2 comes out here soon. I ended up bringing the kobo AND print copies of my books to read on holiday
