They have been on the servers for a week now, we are certainly falling behind the times.

Note:
No longer "pre-release" - The links are now updated on the Amazon device pages (except no device page for the KOA2 yet). = = = = And for those who where not around for the original Oasis naming party, or have forgotten, or those for which English is not their native language: "OA" is the correct abbreviation for "Oasis". It is the "K" which is superfluous but was already deeply ingrained in our pattern of nicknames. |

It's KO2. KOA2 is wrong because that's not how initials work.

So the correct set of initials need to be used. KO2 is the correct initials. Would you call a Kobo Aura One KAON1 when it's clearly KA1? |
