And I know that the serial number can matter. Normally, it doesn't matter, but Kobo can send a particular version to a specific device. It is likely they do it when debugging a problem with a user and then remove the configuration from their server afterwards. And there are other circumstances that it could be used. Randomly trying a serial number is unlikely to produce a different result.
