Obtaining books directly on a Tolino

This is for sources other than the store Tolino associates with out of the box. I recall RCentros has reported on various stores he was able to buy from directly but I couldn't remember which thread that was in and thought it would be good to have a dedicated thread where we report sources that work (or don't work!) on Tolinos.

Here's what I've tried so far:

Overdrive library - works

Gutenberg.org - works

Kobo - mixed results
The first time I tried I was able to access the Kobo home page but tapping the menu button didn't do anything so I couldn't sign in.

I tried again today and was able to use the menu and bring up the sign-in page, which I bookmarked for future direct access. I was then able to download two books which I had previously purchased on my phone, but each required two attempts - I got an error the first time on each book.

Later this evening I signed in again and tried to download a third book but tapping on the three-dot menu didn't do anything so I had to use my PC to transfer the book.
