I don't know what you are doing wrong, but I have bookmarked my calibre servers URL. It's been there a while, so maybe something has changed since then.

As to the rest...

There are three ways to get books onto the device:

- Sideload
- Download via the browser
- From the Kobo servers

As only the last one is likely to make Kobo any money, I don't really expect it to change. Except in maybe one way.

As Rakuten is buying Overdrive, there is hope for an Overdrive client to be integrated into the firmware. I have no idea if Kobo is planning to do this or not, but it would be a sensible move.
