That does sound funny, yes.
Kobo doesn't do much of the hardware development or production. They have a manufacturing partner, Wistron, and a development partner, Netronix. And Kobo didn't develop the screen, either - that was the work of E-ink.
Kobo might have been aware of the 6.8" screen but most likely the actual work was done by someone else. And that makes me wonder what Sameer is trying to avoid saying.
