Another option to try would be to create a separate "dummy" kobo account, purchase a few free ebooks/samples and then see if they will download to the T-1. The link (below) from kobo appears to indicate that it's possible to have separate accounts (on kobo ereaders) and that the wifi will also have to be reset.
