I would love to patronise your store, Kobo, but there is no way I am willing to pay that high a price for it. My H2O still doesn't have a single Kobo purchased book on it. It's all free or Amazon purchased books run through Calibre.
Have you found that the prices in the Kobo India store have gone up by about 200 or more rupees in the last few months?

Do you think that India should be included in the countries that are able to play the monthly Kobo Contest (currently only open to the UK CA and US)?
