Amazon still had updates for the Kindle 1, and brought it up to full capacity, why don't they do this with the Kobo 1? If they don't, I'm not sure I'd buy a new Kobo.
Being forgotten as soon as the newest model comes out is really annoying.

Unfortunately, in my opinion, when you buy a product, you have to expect it to be forever as it is at that moment in time. Firmware updates and improvements can not be expected, but are very nice when a company takes the time to implement them. Kobo has been very good at improving their products post-release, but you are highlighting the one problem with that approach: expectation. Once they started doing these updates, everyone expects them to fix every minor gripe they have with every product to be released, and that is simply not realistic.
That being said, I would not be surprised to see an update to the KO in the future.
