A question about my new KOBO

Fola · 03-14-2011, 07:21 AM

So I used to have a literati and that got stolen. I went to buy the kobo from borders. Unfortunately, it uses the borders store to shop. Does anyone know how I can switch that to Kobo store or if it's possible, because I have subscriptions at Kobostore.com.

Thanks all,
Fola

Since Borders site is really run by Kobo books you do not need to do anything. As evidence please see Border's web site and there will be a logon typically in the lower parts of the screens that says Powered by Kobo.

I believe you simply download and install the desktop software from http://www.kobobooks.com/desktop. Do a wired sync and your kobo should be switched over.
