Okay, thanks. This is what I thought I remembered reading. This means that, if I sell or give away my older Kobos, I can now do a non-developer reset and still be at the newest (or near newest) firmware. Which means the Kobo is working more like a Kindle or PocketBook in this regard now.

Again, thanks for the information.
