Device: Kobo Aura H20
Connect to PC over wifi

I've searched for hours and can find no solution - and not really even any discussion of this. I'm a proud new owner of a Kobo Aura H20. I love the hardware. But getting content onto it from anywhere other than the book store seems awfully old school. I want to use the news push features from Calibre, but I really don't want to have to plug it in several times a day to update it, or whenever I want to add something manually.

Seems very strange that in 2015 I have to physically plug a WiFi enabled device into my computer to get data onto it or use this beta web browser as a workaround. Is there really no way to add it as a device to my computer when it's connected to my local network, or that it can communicate with any cloud service directly?

It seems so primitive that the only way I can really pull content wirelessly is through the awful web browser that won't even let me bookmark my Calibre server's IP address. This is a workaround at best.

Wondering if there's any solution I'm overlooking or this is something that a future software update might address. There really should be some non-complex way to sync content over wifi, either through direct PC connection or a cloud service.
