On the early devices/firmware you couldn't use hyperlinks (heck on the original Kobo Original firmware it didn't even show pictures or maps - of course it was literally 1/2 the price of anything else on the market).
@Sregener - I can understand your hesitation, but the newer firmware are a whole different beast (and much better) than what you were likely using back then.
