Over the past year and a half I must have seen at least four sales of the Kobo Minis, if not more, and each time I feared it would be the end of the Mini, but each time it kept on going. Now however I see that on the WHSmith site the Mini is reduced but out of stock - has anybody in the know got any rumors on the Mini being phased out? My husband just lost his other 5" reader, and I guess I could get another Mini from a brick and mortar store, but even if I could find any remaining stock, I wonder whether it would make sense to buy a model being phased out.

Of course, it may be just me being paranoid!
