You can do the dropbox part on the Kobo Touch, as well. You can also download from Calibre server, if you have that running.
Kobo is subject to Canadian laws. I've been told that there are some privacy hurdles Kobo would have in terms of keeping information about your books from other places either passing through or being stored on their servers.
To put this in context, the US government can get information from US libraries regarding the books a library member has borrowed in the past. My library follows what appears to be the universal practice in Canada of only having a record of what books or other library material you currently have checked out. It's a privacy thing.
