Ooh. This looks nice and has good specs; though I wish it still had backup hardware buttons for page-turns because I personally don't like touching the screen that much and am paranoid (and lazy about trimming my fingernails sometimes).
Hopefully they'll also fix the firmware so that you can finally follow footnotes in books and also use the dictionary with non-Kobo-bought books (and maybe load up your own extra dictionaries in whatever appropriate format).
But aside from those minor issues, this is really nice, especially with the news that they'll be making it available internationally as well.
Hopefully Kobo's expansion of both reader as well as store into the international markets will give them a good niche to get a foothold in and enable them to survive against Amazon et al.
