You'll be proud of me as I downloaded Dolphin (like the gestures) Aldiko, Kindle ereader and other bits and bobs of interest. 
Now the hard bit.....Calibre, downloaded onto laptop, connected Kobo Vox with (now found) cable....add books....located Kobo however which files are transferred? It found some 'parts' then I got the message not responding so I gave up, at this point the Kobo battery now decided to go flat on me..I am just guessing (and learning) at this..any hints?
Also Aldiko..is there any way I can get all my books in one library rather than the vox library,kindle library and now Aldiko? seems they are all over the place or is this just how it is using different ereading apps?
Sorry for so many questions!

Congrats! You're doing great!
All DRM'd books except the Kindle books could be in Aldiko. The Kindle books are a different format and unless DRM is removed must be read in the Kindle app. There is something that can be done to Calibre using some "tools" to do that but we can't give details about this on the forum. Google Apprentice Alf's Blog to find out more.
In Aldiko, once the books are on the Vox, there is an icon for "files". You can find your books there on the sd card to "load" them to the app or use Calibre wirelessly (as a catalogue) to transfer the books to Aldiko.
The thread "a better browser" has info about loading books to Aldiko wirelessly in the different posts. (Assuming you are interested).
