See if there are two files named "driver.calibre.exe" and "metadata.calibre.exe" in the root folder of your ereader. I found that Calibre was downloading them automatically and when I delete them everything works fine (and no formatting issues appear so I'm not sure what the files are really for). Try attaching your Kobo, loading a few books and deleating the two Calibre files (if they're there) before you eject the reader, it worked well for me.

Goodluck!!
I agree with you, I think Calibre is providing Corrupt Meta data to the reader that affects Covers and othe issues such as you have mentioned. Not much to do other then make a report to Calibre.. But some problems are hard to track down to the cause.

good luck
