No. That's partly why I was so excited to get the 350. Kobo's UI is quite polished and the software development team appears to be attentive to user feedback, but currently the Kobo is a very basic reader which doesn't even support endnotes. That may be rectified in a future firmware update, in addition to other new features -- PDF reflow, for one, seems a strong possibility.

Both the 350 and 650 have been available in Australia for almost a week now*. It's probably the same in NZ.

* (In the local Sony Centres, that is. I don't know about orders from the SonyStyle online store.)
