I'm pretty psyched. That is exactly what I was hoping. I saw the Mini at my local bookstore around the holidays, and even then found the form factor appealing. Amazon, and publishers, have been very good so far about ensuring availability of materials in the Kindle format; but my U of Chicago Press free ebooks of the month are all EPUB. Because the European booksellers/publishers still seem to prefer EPUB and I've not had a pleasant means of reading that format, I haven't gotten into a thorough exploration of whether *any* (modern/current) titles in German are available to me in the US, and if so, what conditions have been satisfied to make them available outside the EU.
Now, given the reputed impenetrability of Kobo's customer service dept., all I have to do now, is hope that all goes well with my order.
Thank you - !
