Despite the AUD being higher than the USD, I'm pretty resigned to this new Kobo Touch being $180AUD when it makes it to stores down here. Must be cause we're all upside down here.

$180 ?? Given that the current wifi model is nearly 50% more expensive (US $99, Aus $179), I am anticipating that the Touch model will be $200 plus when it eventually ships to Australia.
How do you spell Rip-off ??
P.S. I would love a touch model, but since I have passed my Original down to my wife so I could get a wifi recently, I dont think I will be allowed
