Incidentally Win 7 recognises Xoom as a device not as a driver, but apart from this the problem is one of recognition. only one out of approx 500, has been recognised this was a DRM epub, bought from Borders Australia.

Kobo is installed on the Xoom but wont let me access my books because I am not in USA (my partners Ipad2 has no problem) I cannot download my Sony books because the Sony app will not download to Australia, the same applies to the Borders USA site, the Australian Borders site does not download the app to Xoom; but it is coming soon? they say (because they are in liquidation I seriously doubt it) in spite of the fact that Sony, Borders and Kobo download full versions to my laptop (Win7/64). All i need is a magic app that will allow me to access my books on the Xoom.

Any suggestions

All I need is for some benign, intelligent genius out there to solve my problem for me, pleeeeese

Most convenient way:
Install "WiFi File Explorer Pro" from the market.
Via web browser on PC or Mac you can copy your books to the Xoom. For now obviously to internal memory, but working flawlessly.
For "Aldiko", put the books in the folder "eBooks/import". Then import them.
