If you didn't upgrade the Kobo Desktop application yet, then, at one point in the next days, it should find an update and ask you to update the application itself. After having ran the update, it shall then find the firmware upgrade for the reader. Hope this helps. Aniello |

And remember... the Kobo application has not yet been updated for the other markets; only those of us in Canada have the new one so far.

So far, the only issue I have is that books I load by ADE that have no DRM are not accessible (but if I load by Calibre they read fine). GG |

I had to reset the Kobo and re-sync all the e-book again (ADE, Kobo App and Calibre). Yeah.. three different programs to handle one device ![]() |

I downloaded the actual kobo software/store (as opposed to the angus and robertson one) and it updated fine... it also added my books from kobo complete with proper font sizes and cover art.
It was a win for me, apart from the abysmal performance of the kobo software... it's extremely laggy and takes forever to download anything. Still, i'm happy! |

No worries, it isn't a deal breaker for me... but the software is really, really laggy.
Plus side, i've found that the pages turn quicker on the Kobo now with 1.4 firmware. |

Yes thats a complaint I have too, so many times when I've loaded up the border's AU software it sits there with the "blue ring of wait" (Vista), I get bored and start surfing the net. To use the program again I have to wait until it stops. Its not a huge problem (use Calibre more) but if I was using it often (check for firmware which is what I use it for now, though torn between battery improvements and loss of the covers when turning off) it would get extremely frustrating.

So... I guess as long as I use ADE to load books with DRM and Calibre to load books without DRM, I guess I am good to go. GG |
