The H20 was a limited edition. They didn't think it would sell so much. That, I understand. The Aura One was launched after a big research with customers. So, Kobo knew what people wanted. I just can't believe they were not expecting great sales.

So, maybe the Aura One has more problems than expected and they are fixing them. Or, the guys just didn't order/make enough to meet the demand. First case scenario : I'm happy I didn't buy one yet. First and second case scenario : someone should get fired...
