Any individual device can have a flaw, either there from day 1 and never noticed, or developed over time, that a software update can trip over. There is no way to test, or expect, new firmware releases to account for that. The same thing happens with any software driven device, be it computers, cars, smartphones, or e-readers,, someone goes to install a new firmware, and either they encounter some serious issues no one else is, or the device is just dead in the water.
I've owned many many kobo devices. Most of my experiences have been positive. But I will say, my overall impression, Kobo does not have the greatest track record for Quality Control and ruggedness. (But they are also very affordable devices, and excellent value, in my not so humble opinion.)
