Do you also have a Mac? Are you using calibre? Are you using the Kobo extension plugins? Are you using kepub?
For me, the problem is especially pronounced in connection with calibre. It does not seem to want to let got of my Kobo, hence the failed ejections. What Kobo could actually do is let users update the database manually (some “search for new books” button that essentially simulates a proper “eject-search for files-add new files to db-refresh display” sequence) and try to make their readers less sensitive to atypical ejection. Sometimes, upon ejecting, my H2O reverts to its home screen as if nothing happened and I only realize that it hasn’t loaded the database properly is because it won’t let me delete tiles anymore. If I then start reading are deleting files or anything that is written to the database, I risk messing it up.
If Kobo could find a way (again, like Amazon, Pocketbook, Tolino, Sony) to be less sensitive about atypical ejection, that would help some people tremendously...
