Not that I don't think Kobo should offer landscape mode, but the Tolinos and Kobos are (so far) two completely different animals. The Tolino runs under Android, the Kobo under Linux – I'm guessing there will be changes in the future as Kobo integrates Tolino more closely into their infrastructure.

But you've got to admit, it is kind of odd that Kobo doesn't implement landscape mode when it's pretty much a given for most other eReaders. I don't see why they couldn't offer all the features mentioned above AND landscape mode.
