You understand me wrong.. with every sync,kobo is checking for updates.
So if you don't sync, nothing happens..
Kobo build things in the firmware, like the resetting watchdog without telling this to users.
So I was asking myself, what if Kobo builds in a timer that after,by example,30 days, open a wifi connection by itself to check if there is an update and installs it ?
I am not afraid for telling details at all.

How do you know this ?? A minority of Kobo users is using this forum. (compared with Kobo buyers worldwide)
You can't say, there are 3 people complaining here so it is a minor issue.
There can be thousands out there,only not knowing of the existance of this forum..
