Or it could be that the manufacturer didn't have any more to sell at this point - didn't someone mention in another thread that their were production delays or issues or some such?

JB Hi-Fi ( Geelong )have Kobo Minis - 7 to be exact but no Glo. They must be getting them soon because they have pink sleep covers. I assume they are for the Glo. I checked in Officeworks but just got a shrug of the shoulders

Harris Tech - $138 - still 'no stock' (+ postage)
Harvey Norman - $160 - no stock against NSW postcodes. (First time I've seen them mentioned on the website, so prob means they're on their way to Narv Norm) |

JB Hifi had the Mini in-store today. It is so small and cute...
They are expecting the Glo... well...when I asked, my favourite JBHiFier went to one of the netbooks on display, brought up the public JB HiFi website and checked it out. She then did something on her magic JB Hifi Tech device. Couldn't give me an availablity date. |

I guess what Malcolm is saying is that the agreed Australian release date is Monday 3 December. Well, only 2 days before we confirm that, eh!! |

JB didn't have the Glo today. And didn't know when they'd show up.
