From Sameer in Post 18 in this thread
One, he was responding to a different rumor. And two, the corollary to this denial is that Kobo planned in advance to release an inferior piece of hardware. Given what Kobo released last Fall I don't find that plausible.

And three, just because Kobo planned to use this screen a year ago doesn't mean that they planned a Spring launch instead of a Fall launch.
