No SD card. I woke up one morning and the "Sleeping" message was there but the device wouldn't wake up. Holding down the power button and/or doing the paperclip reset just causes the light in the power button to blink for a minute, but the device never resets; I talked to Kobo support, who confirmed that it's bricked and said the only thing to do is replace it--but that since I live in Mexico, they can't process a warranty replacement, and since I bought it via Amazon (since the model I wanted wasn't for sale at a bricks-and-mortar shop here), I'm not eligible for warranty replacement regardless. Hence my desire to find an alternative device rather than giving them more of my $$...
