I bought one of the first units on May 1st, the first day of sale at Chapters at Manulife Centre.
I just upgraded successfully. The process was very clear ... and it worked, which is even better.
I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit edition; the browser is Chrome 5.0.375.86. Kobo settings now reports 1.4 software (Jun 22 2010).
Small matter, but the timezone got changed to GMT and hence my Eastern Time was incorrect and needed to be reset.
I re-authorised Adobe Digital Editions successfully and books known to have not worked in ePub previously now display fonts correctly. This includes:
• Library books from local public library with DRM currently checked out
• "Liberated" library books from the same source
(temporarily liberated of course for testing purposes)
• Books purchased with DRM ePub from Fictionwise
• Calibre converted Amazon Kindle books
• My own hand-tuned, hand created ePubs (such as The Under Dogs by Hulbert Footner in the Mobileread Library)
So, all in all, 100% successful!
Thanks again to the entire Kobo team.
