As for geek1011's firmware locator? What I used cycles through all the Kobo affiliates I have listed in a fashion best described as slower than molasses -- a coder I'm not. I think bestbuy.ca was the winner on this firmware but really wasn't paying attention -- Gods of Sagittarius was claiming my attention while it ran.

I used the Mark 6 5 & 4 firmware to update my various Kobos. (KA1, Aura H20, Aura HD, Aura) and all seemed happy enough.
You can submit a pr to the github repo for my firmware downloader if you want to. It is simple to add more affiliates.

I am also planning to add an option for user specified affiliates in the page and push notifications when I have a chance.
