Kobo is not Japanese. The current owner is Rakuten which is a Japanese company but Kobo is still located in Toronto, ON.

As for the second part? Assuming you are referring to the comments about hardware quality, perhaps you should supply more information as to which ereaders you consider as having better hardware. Of the ereaders I've owned, the Kobo ereaders have not lagged the field in hardware quality.

As for the poll that JAck is running in this thread, I'm not bothering to vote -- as usual, his poll questions are far too simplistic. An item such as "there are bugs but they seldom interfere with my ability to read" or "there are bugs but Kobo has corrected many of them with firmware updates".
