I can't remember if it was closer to 3.13.0 or 3.15.0. But, I didn't see the performance problems that others are reporting with 3.15.0, so I wouldn't choose to go back.
Simple.. as long as it doesn't get ejected,you can go to the .kobo directory and remove the upgrade,then disconnect... didn't thought about that.. I didn't installed the desktop software because it interfears with my adobe digital editions.
I do hope Kobo developes a new firmware fast,because from what I read on other boards,people bring their Kobo HD back because of the lag and other things,not realising it is only the software (I hope) but if you are used to a Sony, you get most of the time just one update and after that there is none in years,so a lot of people don't realise that Kobo brings an update almost every month.
I hope u are betatesting a new firmware already
