What do you mean, should we use the new screens? We had to buy a minimum order of 1000 of the old ones! We'll be using those in the next 2 models as well!"

The Kobo Touch 2.0 is to compete with the Kindle Touch Basic. The only thing that's better (hardware wise) about the 2.0 vs the Basic is that the screen resolution is 1024x758 instead of the Basic's 800x600.
