It's just so the Kobo doesn't connect to Kobo. Has the side effect of making "My Books" be the "home screen".
All our Kobos in the family have "sideloadedmode" on because we all only use Calibre to load ebooks, no-one uses sync, no-one uses the Internet on the ereaders (they all have phones & tablets etc) and everyone prefers "My Books" as the default screen.
It just means that the e-reader can function without synching with a Kobo account. It can still connect to Kobo,, and one really neat thing is that a sideload mode kobo will still be able to download/install dictionaries.. (thanks Kobo, that was very friendly). But opening books with Kobo DRM is the one thing it absolutely can't do without a kobo account. It never occurred to me to test Adobe DRM,, that might actually work.
