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...
No, the Aura HD was the limited edition device. For the Aura ONE, while they did the research, but the product was still a premium product. I think they expected it to sell well, but I think it was much better than expected. So, I do think it has sold out because they didn't plan well enough. But, I am wondering if they are taking advantage of this to fix some of the hardware problems.
