Hey all,
TL/DR: Just bought a Kobo, other than adding books to it, what else is something I should do to it right out of the box? Tips & Tricks welcomed.

Long time lurker, first time posting. I am excited to say that I just received my first ever Ereader. (well technically it will be delivered today while at work.)

After reading and watching many reviews for many different readers, I decided to order a Kobo Libra H20 and am vary excited about it. I am rather tech savvy so I shouldn't have any issues with setting up the device and getting some books on it. I already set up Calibre and have a handful of books ready to go.

With that said, as a noob, my question to you is; other than putting books on the device, what are some of the first things I should do? I know this is rather open ended but is there anything you discovered while using the device that you wish you had done sooner?
Ideal settings? Added a wallpaper, sideloaded certain programs, stick to one file format, etc. etc.

I still plan to dive around this Kobo specific section and I am sure i will find best practices and ideas but I appreciate your input.

Thank you.
