I've never felt the need to patch my Kobo's and I'm very happy with them. Depends on what you want your e-reader to do and for some people some or all of the patches change it in ways that improves their experience. As dordale said, the patches just improve the experience for some (and the ease and safety of doing so means virtually anyone that wants to can use them).

Not so much. Kobo has at lot of features that Kindles don't. Whether you care about those features or not is up to you, but without patches/hacks a Kobo is most definitely NOT just a Kindle.
