Can I sync wirelessly and get the book without the update? I have no option when plugging into the desktop, but is there an option when working wirelessly?

How I do it is by using the Sony Reader for PC as my default Reader program. Yes, that means that when I buy a book from Kobo it auto downloads into my Sony Reader for PC program.

I open the book there and then I Import the book into Calibre, where I clean it and side load it into my Glo.

I don't open the Kobo Desktop program, and don't use the Kepubs - only Calibre cleaned and side loaded Kobo Epubs.

Here's a link to the Sony Desktop download:
