As I understand it, it's a coating over the internal parts of the device rather then sealing the case itself. They might use an internal SD card but it might be sealed in place by the waterproofing so unremovable without damaging things (beyond just destroying the waterproof seal). Until someone gets one and opens it up we won't know for sure.

In answer to the question in your subject, there has been no official word from Kobo so we don't know if overdrive is coming to the other devices. I'd be surprised if it didn't since it's a good marketing feature, but right now we don't know.
The back of the Glo HD popped off as an accident - seriously.

Alas, the Aura One has a rear shell which is more securely fastened.
