Do you know of any way in which I can get a Kobo reader to accept or work with the ebooks I prepare? So far as I know they must be side loaded.
Alex, if the linked text (TOC) in your book works in Adobe Digital Editions and on your Sony PRS-T1 but not on your Touch, then, the problem is with the Touch firmware for sideloaded EPUBs, not your book.

The Kobo developers have been continuously improving the Touch firmware since it's release in June. It was only with November release of the Touch firmware that the last bug was removed from the Kobo EPUB (KEPUB) linked text functionality.

I do not know what plans Kobo has for addressing the deficiencies in how linked text works in sideloaded EPUBs on the Touch but if they want to compete with Sony's PRS-T1, the various flavors of the Nook and the Kindles, it is something that they will have to do soon. In my opinion, how linked text works in sideloaded EPUBs and the lack of any way to organize books are the Touch's major deficiencies compared to the competition.
