Given its selling in Canada, the U.K., France, and several other markets where they've got retail partners, I don't think the supply issue is as big a deal as Amazon or others would have you believe, based on how Amazon habitually restricts sales of their best devices to the U.S. for months on end. I suspect Amazon just wants to create the impression of a shortage, so people will be more eager to buy a product when it finally shows up.
For Kobo, I think their lack of partners in the U.S., plus a lack of enthusiasm through retailers who have no real stake in releasing the product is more the problem.
