And those of us with the first-gen readers have good reason to be upset. This was promised to us ages ago ... and was promised long before the WiFi version was announced. Originally, it was supposed to be available by the end of May. Then that got put off, and now, Kobo newcomers are getting the first crack, while the rest of us have to wait for a firmware update that is coming ...

In fact, it could be possible to have with different approach. Imagine
reader as linux node, as it is. And kobo desktop application as a proxy,
as it is. Add browser to the game. Small footprint bares from something
fancy, but it might be possible. Extending file system to SD card opens
horizon for bigger libraries. Usb adapter should be set as host to be used
for any kind of communication to the outer world. A lot of work for the
result that would not match even the worst netbook.
I stopped to feel myself forgotten. Since I have money in my hand, all
vendors will pay attention to me. Right?
