Funny that there's an article on their website from Jan 11th titled, "There will never be another Amazon or Kobo".
It focuses a lot on the software (books) side of things but near the article he refers to the hardware:

I firmly believe that it is not financially possible to make selling e-readers, tables and e-books happen anymore. This in turnstifles innovation*and results in small incremental updates that doesn’t really give users a reason to update. We have two companies left, Amazon and Kobo, and that’s it.

Is this a tacit admission that their ereader dream is dead?
