Thanks for clarifying. Any idea how I would create a bookmark? There seem to be no obvious icons or controls in the browser.
In any event this is disappointing - I thought actually selling me a kobo made them some money. This seems such a strange design choice, since it's only an inconvenience and doesn't actually prevent me from sideloading (which is supported of course) -- it just makes it annoying.
The kind of content for which this matters most (that is, stuff that is short and changes frequently, like news) is the kind that would never earn them money. Most of the actual books I buy are technical books that I can't buy through their site anyway. I don't mind plugging in or doing the manual browser thing to download a whole book once in a while, but it would be frustrating to have to do this to keep in sync with stuff that I want to update daily.
Anyway hopefully the future brings better design choices.
