Just an update on my update ;-) ...after taking my Kobo back to Borders to be reflashed so I could at least boot with 1.4 firmware again, I tackled the desktop app to get the 1.8 update.
It all went well, but instructions given did actually give an incorrect button combination to get into upgrade mode - sorry if this has already been discussed, but it's probably good to point out again as I guess there will be a few more Aussies doing the update now that it has rolled out to the Borders app. The on-screen instructions say to press the menu button + the power button, but you actually need to press the centre D-pad as well.
But it's all great now, and thank you to Taming for the instructions on how to replace the db etc; I did that too, so it's all nice and fresh!
