It's actually been posted further towards the top of this page by crochetgeek2010. You edit your affiliate.conf file located on your reader in the .kobo directory. When you turn on the wifi and sync, you'll get the download. I always keep mine set to BestBuyCA as well so I can get updates quickly instead of 5 months later.
