A big plus for me is that Apprentice Alf's OBOK plugin for calibre will access books that have been downloaded from the Kobo Store to Kobo Desktop's book directory on your local disk. You can then conveniently de-DRM them and put them in calibre.

I don't use it for upgrading firmware, which I prefer to do manually. I don't use wi-fi for anything Kobo-device-related.
