I don't have a real answer to that question. It may be a financial decision in that the time and effort to compile, debug and deliver a newer Linux kernel to work in the limited CPU and RAM of the Kobo Wifi for the number of them still in use does not make fiscal sense. I remember booting off a SD card at Chapters to do an update but not sure if that was a Kobo Original or a Kobo Wifi and delivering an update in that form would add greatly to the expense.
I own an Android tablet that has lost much of it limited usefulness with many websites no longer let it connect so I get to see unsupported protocol error messages. Oddly, it is only a year older than my Nexus 2013 but the manufacturer decided not to support any upgrades after a point upgrade (4.2-4.3??).
