But, as I said, I don't think it will handle 'proper kepubs', i.e. those bought from Kobo and managed by the Kobo servers. I'm not sure about 'pseudo kepubs', i.e. those created within calibre.
Thanks, I will certainly give that a try. I was hoping the Arc would sync with the Glo (with side loaded EPUBs) but this isn't happening. All the collections on the Glo appear on the Arc, but with no content. If the books are added manually they disappear after a while. It's a shame really as I'm enjoying reading on the Arc, but it is a pain when the reading position doesn't synchronise. I should have stayed with the Kindle I guess...
