Looks like the fact mentioned in the earlier post about Borders being Kobo's US presence no longer applies.

Borders stops fulfilling ebook orders directly
" Borders has stopped doing ebooks,
kind of. They always used Kobo to power their ebook store, but now
they’ve cut themselves out of things and ebook purchases are directly
through Kobo. "
Well, that's too bad. I don't know who in the US would want to subject themselves to the international service fee for doing transaction with Kobo. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or even Sony, ftw!
