Consider that Kobo launch the new Aura One with new resolution 1872 x 1404 so they need to add and change a lot of code in the next FW, and hopefully add a cloud service, so i understand why it takes them so long.

I doubt the new resolution is particularly hard to adjust for, but we might be getting a new "Model" type, maybe a new CPU. The Overdrive support would be a big change too.

Are there people here who are beta testers? And could they tell us if they were ;-)?

If I read this, the question you really want to ask is if a particular bug is fixed. And that's basically the usual question: Is "x" in the next firmware? Where "x" could be a bug fix or a desired new featured.

So now that we have a pre-order date (Aug 30th), and a release date (Sept 6th), we should expect a firmware update sometime before then right?
