Some Kobo use a micro SD Card (often glued, but the glue can be dissolved/softened easily) and some use a Flash chip. However Kobo isn't locked down. No jailbreak needed.

Also they wanted the Symbain developers using the Mobile Java and desktop devs using full java, which attracted them to Android as back then it used full Java, which mysteriously Sun licensed free to desktop, but wouldn't licence at all for Mobile. Then Sun was was going to sell Google a licence, but Oracle bought them
