Thanks, checked that one regularly since they put it up at the Mini's release, it seems to be always "Sold Out", discounted or regular price, online or store... (no problem with the white one) I think somebody managed to score one in what was probably the only shipment they got so far?!?

Eventually, it will sort itself out and I'm not in any particular hurry, it just seems strange that Kobo seems to have miscalculated the demand so badly (or maybe they decided to prioritize the white since it's the one in all their promo material...)
