It would appear that all the posts about database corruption in the last while have been connected to using a Kobo Elipsa.

For what it's worth, my current experience with an Elipsa is a customer who is looking at them as replacements for their aging Sony DPT eNote devices. After sideloading the corporate content and "safely" ejecting the Elipsa, they have been shutting the connected computer down before unplugging the USB cable. Not exactly the speediest process but so far they have not seen any database corruption.
