Since it was always stated that it was a limited edition, do you think they are actually not producing it anymore ?
No one knows but I can speculate. I think the indications are that they intend to keep providing the Aura. Your research shows that Auras will be available to you in September and they will be offered in US bookstores in August. This seems to indicate that Kobo ordered an additional production.

I think the "Limited Edition" tag simply indicates that the Aura is the Mercedes-Benz of eReaders. It will appeal to people who appreciate fine products and possibly to the very people most appalled by the eBook. I'm hoping that someone will create a book cover for it that measures up.
