Hey, if Kobo can sell that reader for $119, more power to them. But if you can get the Aura for $119 and you can get the Clara for $129, why would you buy the Aura?

That's essentially the same calculus I did when they introduced the Aura Ed 2; the writing was on the wall for the Glo HD so I jumped. I think this time the writing's on the wall for the Aura. Either Kobo is quite cynically using Walmart to offload a boatload of inventory or the Aura will be repositioned as a competitor to the basic Kindle, with a price to match. Even at $99, when you can regularly get a PW at that price, it's overpriced.
