It reminds me of the Blackberry way - nice phones but as soon as a new model supersedes an old one, the old one no longer gets any updates and after a while is rendered totally useless! Not fair! Amazon invests heavily into their updates. They seem indebted to constantly improving and upgrading their Kindle. Rakuten it seems couldn’t give a toss!
This just seems wrong.

I believe my Kobo Glo still gets updates, and it was released in 2012. If you read the Kobo forums, the general rule is that all the Kobo models run basically the same firmware.
