Will this work for those of us running the linux version as well I hope?

The rollout to existing users is waiting on updating the Kobo Desktop Application (or the borders desktop app, or A&R, or Whitcoulls, etc) before we can roll out the update over-the-wire, that piece is taking a bit to test and we expect the first ones to go out this Friday.
In other words, you'll get a Desktop App update, and then the new desktop application will trigger the firmware update when you connect the device (you'll have to go through a wizard).
This will be roll-out so everyone won't get the update right on Friday. I'll try to find out what the roll-out plan is to get you more info.
And for those curious, yes we were definitely affected by the .. ah.. disturbances.. around the Downtown Toronto area. Some quite close to home office actually. Pretty scary.
