I got a Kobo the other day, from Chapters in Canada, and I've added some books already, synched and the battery is full charged. I'm finishing another book so haven't starting using it, but I did play around with it and I get how it works (quite simple, actually).

So I'm wondering if I should bother with the software update. I read a bit here about the slow release of 1.9 (I don't even know which version I'm running) and I also read about some issues people had (in general).

For the foreseable future I will only use the Kobo for reading books purchased via Chapters/Kobo. At some point I'll take some out from the library's website...but I have enough to read that this is many months away. Given my basic use of it, is the update warranted?

Thanks and sorry if I'm asking a question about something that has probably been covered in depth already.
