Staying on topic, though:
Having tried both, for the average user I really don't think there's much of a difference. I tend to stick with KEPUBs, but YMMV.
Also, unless you have a compelling reason to have SE books in your Calibre library, you could just download the books directly from SE onto your Kobo using the experimental browser. Since my Calibre library was meant to be a reflection of ebooks I had "bought" and stripped the DRM from, I stopped bothering to keep local copies of SE books.

Hey, those wars are alive and well! I think? You can't let the vi people win? (n.b. Vi, not "Vi improved" ... how does that get you the vim acronym anyway? Vi people ...)
Or use Ed. To quote the famous Patrick J. Lopresti: "When I log into my Xenix system with my 110 baud teletype, both vi and Emacs are just too darn slow. They print useless messages like, ‘C-h for help’ and ‘“foo” File is read only’. So I use the editor that doesn't waste my VALUABLE time. Ed, man! !man ed"
If anybody here knows what I'm talking about, can I get get a mid-90's meme in return?
Thanks!
Also following this thread with interest as I just got a Kobo. ☺
