I want to release my eBook to the public domain. It's a collection of magazines from a WWI POW camp with many PNG format images. I have a Kobo Touch with firmware 2.6.1 that has the bug of not displaying PNG images. Apparently this was fixed with firmware 2.8.1 that was released in July 2013. It is now late October and I am still waiting for this firmware so that I can final proof my eBook and release it. I may be in Australia but the internet is global. Why does it take so long for Kobo to push down their firmware?

PLEASE PUSH DOWN KOBO TOUCH FIRMWARE 2.8.1 GLOBALLY ASAP!

Please no comments about side loading - I shouldn't have to risk bricking my reader just because Kobo broke it with the last firmware "upgrade".
