Since the new firmware is released to the new models well before their available dates (so that it can be burned in before boxing), there is no reason why Kobo can't release it early to the existing devices, and get the inevitable issues resolved before thousands of new customers start posting here wondering why their brand new Kobo's are bricked.

The last thing that Kobo needs right now is any embarassment with a release.
Well there is what they should do and what they will do. I was guessing what they will do.
