I gathered from one of the videos, that by default nothing is underlined. You have to choose to click on the icon bottom left to have it.

But, we may learn more, in a few days, if early recipients of the device report in here. |

Youtube Review in German
Here's another video review. The performance doesn't seem as snappy as I would have hoped. Watch the page turns when the guy taps the screen.

Yeah, you can adjust border spacing, at least I was able on my old Touch.

Also I know it's different gens but the Aura light completely blows away that of the 1st gen Paperwhite. Amazon is really going to have to up its game to match that quality. |

a bit more information, for France at least
I went to a FNAC store at lunch time (wich is the exclusive seller for Kobo devices in France, as far as I know) and after having been sent from vendor to vendor (I think, I only missed two : the cameras-phones one and the music-films one ) I happened in front of one that : 1) was not busy 2) knew what a kobo reader was 3) was aware of the near release of new reader/tablets He told me that he had no release shedule so far but had received an e-mail from FNAC that said that the new Kobo devices were expected for "the end of september", themselves not knowing when Kobo will make them available OK one could have hoped something more precise, but at least, we can expect them to show in France between now and the 30th... it's only a two weeks interval |

Thank you very much Vice-versa.
For the Aura HD I bugged several shop assistants. They usually could check the database to tell me that the Aura was registered (only in black at that time) but not in stock and the expected price. Nothing more. I think I went again two days before its release and I got the same information, so even them didn't know when it was coming. When asking Kobo_fr on Twitter, the answer is usually to check with FNAC. In short I guess we'll know when it will be released the day of the release |
