If you have the patience of Job you can actually borrow and download eBooks from Overdrive (in the U.S.) with just the Kindle, by using the Experimental Browser. It's much easier (and faster), however, to use your computer or smartphone to do the borrowing.

Yep, I'm sure the review was. But the reviewer should have updated the Kobo review when he/she updated the Kindle review. (After all they're showing a picture of the Kobo Clara, not an old Kobo.) Borrowing from Overdrive is not "seamless" on the Kindle -- it (basically) requires another device to do the borrowing. Kobos truly are seamless here.
