maybe it depends on android version or some other subtlety but I can't think how
i will try it one more time with chrome data saver enabled, as that will then serve from an intermediate server....

well the plot thickens - with data saver ON, AND portrait mode, that elusive menu moves off the home page to under a single hamburger on the left ,which expands ok.
in portrait with data server off the hamburger does NOT expand
and back in landscape- sometime the sub menus show briefly but are not accessible, other times they don't show at all

ther must be some background calculation of windows size and orientation which toggles between 2 different presentations. one has the horizontal menu with 4 entire as listed before, the narrow veiw moves those off screen and under a single drop down that is not using the same screen overlay/pop up technique. I can't be bothered to go to display source & puzzle out all the options

and a final caveat, the site somehow knows I am in UK and is serving a UK version, I have no idea what folks in other regions may see...

i will just concluded that if you want to buy a kobo reader from kobo via a tablet, you have to be VERY motivated and persistent
