I can't even find one on the German eBay.
I just looked at the Kobo Australia site, and the Aura H2OE2 is listed as "Temporarily Out of Stock". That suggests it is coming back.

More interesting is that the original Aura H2O is also listed as "Temporarily Out of Stock". I had assumed they would be stopping this, but maybe they are keeping one device with an external SD card around.

If Kobo have hardware to release, they usually announce in either March/April or September and release it about a month later. The last firmware release includes some hints of a new device, so, I think we will be seeing something in the March/April this year. And having something new for Walmart makes a lot of sense. Of course, I have no idea what the new device will be.
