Sad that Indigo is making a loss this financial year - don't want Kobo to disappear from the market.

Since Kobo and Indigo are separate companies, I don't think this will impact Kobo this much.
I can understand Indigo thinking as to why setup a tech. section. People are into tablets and smartphones, so it makes sense on paper to offer more tech. orientated gadgets.
But people go to Future Shop or Best Buy to buy tech. gadgets, not to book stores.
However, I can see Indigo closing stores and laying off people due to the net loss.
Taking down the tech. section and reverting back to the way it was - a table with kobo devices is a possibility.
