I bought a rather sizable book from Kobo. As a pBook, it weighs a good 10-15 lbs; many thousands of pages etc. Just the sort of thing that e reading is made for.

The book installed just fine on my Touch. It also installed fine in the desktop program on my Windows XP desktop. On my Windows Surface RT, I have the Kobo app installed and several books have downloaded successfully. But this particular book just hangs when I try to download it. I tried leaving it to download over night, but still nothing.

My immediate work around is to download the ePub and install an ePub reader. Anyone have any suggestions?

Attach your Touch to the computer and copy the file over?
