Kobo's E Ink product line consists of 6-inch and 6.8-inch devices, both of which sell well, with the 6-inch devices selling the most (and the 6-inch size is also the best-seller for their competitors).

But there's a theory circulating amongst us that a Kobo Mini with a front light would be the sleeper of the year in sales.

I'd buy one.
