LOL, yes, Kobo announced this months in advance and people were just salivating to get their hands on it. Waing two whole weeks was torturous. Very few things in life are black or white or pass/fail. I know you are capable of more nuance than that. Frankly, I think Kobo should go back to not shipping directly to the US and using their independent bookstore partners to do this. Perhaps if the Aura becomes a standard offering, they will.

You will do what you will do and think what you will think. You are free to write whatever you want, and believe whatever you want, with no obligation whatsoever to look at or consider anyone else's point of view. Blog away, blog away!
