What do you mean "Why is kobo releasing version improvements to various other sites but withholding them from its own kobo.com site"? All updates to devices download directly from Kobo, they don't get downloaded from other sites. Like most manufacturers updates aren't sent out to every device at the same time. The way Kobo controls this is by activating it for various affiliates at various times.


You are of course always able to download the update files directly from Kobo and manually update if so desired. Links to the newest firmware are in the following thread...

...or if you can find out what affiliates are currently getting the update (usually not hard to find out) you can change your devices affiliate to that and sync for the update.
