I'm beginning to suspect that when you download into your Kobo directly from the Kobo store, you are not getting an epub file, but rather something in Adobe Mobile Reader Technology. If you download the epub file through the Adobe Desktop Editions, you have a real epub file. I'm guessing that the ARMT reader only gives chapter counts - remember how Shortcovers allowed you to read a chapter at a time? If you have an epub file, the Kobo uses the standard ADE reader like all the other ereaders. I'm not sure of this, and I'm not quite sure how to verify outside of a Kobo person confirming it, but I'm getting pretty suspicious...
