I use Calibre already and loaded the 2 Kobo plugin I found, but without an actual device, I was really only investigating
Calibre already has the driver plugin that you need included. This is the KoboTouch driver. The installable plugins are:

- KoboTouchExtendedDriver - Sends epubs to the Kobo device as "Kobo epubs". These use the same reader application that books downloaded directly from the Kobo server.

- Kobo epub output - Allows books to be converted to Kobo ePub and kept in the library.

- Kobu Utilities - All sorts of extra things you can do to the books on the device while it is connected.

Q5: I saw that there is a PC program that looks like a sync/manager. Any experience with that?
I assume you mean the Kobo desktop application. If so, this isn't needed. It is a book manager but only for books bought from Kobo. It can be used to sync these to the device if you don't want to use the built in WiFi. It will also check for updated firmware and install that when connected. But, the device can do this over WiFi as well.
