I am not going to waste my time calling them as I can read the information on the web site describing their ereaders. The devices are designed to read any ePub from any source. They are designed to read PDF, CBR and several other formats. The devices are designed to allow sideloading of books from lots of sources. They state this on the site. "Load up library eBooks" or "A more personal library" are both sections that describe this.

If you talk to a Kobo support person again and they say this, please ask to talk to their supervisor so that they can be set straight.

And I have talked to Kobo personnel about this. Not the first level support, but others in the company.

Well, I have seen at least one Ford with a Chevy engine in it. But, the main reason for not doing it is that car people tend to be Chevy or Ford or whatever brand. In Australia, that is Holden or Ford. And never the twain shall meet except over a few beers and a lot of argument.
