Since you are side-loading, did you give up the Tolino Cloud? I think that you can still register on a German site (or Austrian or Swiss), even if you upload ebooks bought somewhere else. Cloud still works. It is important to me to be able to use their App on iPhone or iPad and be always synchronized when I'm without the eReader. Side-loading ebooks you can't do it.
I could not register because it would not accept my UK address. There may be a way around that, but I wasn't bothered enough to try.

In my opinion, Kobo's reading functionality is superior in how it allows the user to fine tune fonts, and in margin and spacing adjustments. The Tolino is more basic but ok. Kepubs also handle footnotes in a much better way, and calculate page numbers based on your reader settings rather than a fixed number.

My Tolino is smaller, lighter and more reliable - those factors are more important to me.
