It looks like Kobo has a new Aura in the works, the Aura H2O.

Judging from the name and previous rumours, this one may be water-proof (actually, by the time the lawyers are done with it, it will be water-resistant to 1 metre).

Things we know:

6.8 inch screen
WiFi
Micro SD slot
Model: N250
USB 2.0
Designed and probably manufactured by Netronix
Battery is: 3.7vdc, 1500mmAh (not sure if this is the production battery)
Adobe Reader version: 9.2.38311N/A (from the FCC)

I'm creating a thread for this, as now that it is at the FCC, it is no longer a rumour.
