New, low-end Kobo possible?
Now that Tolino has released a new, low-end Page 2 (with front-light and 8 GBs of storage instead of 4) do you think Kobo will update their Aura 2's to match the Tolino Page 2's hardware? Not only does the Page 2 have 8Gbs of storage, but they've changed the Page 2 to look almost like a Clara, instead of like the older style Kobos, with the blue switch on the back. I'm guessing probably not, since the Aura 2 still outshines the Kindle Basic hardware spec-wise, 212dpi vs 167dpi screen, but it would be interesting to see what they do.
And if they did come out with Tolino Page 2-like "Aura 3," would Walmart still sell the $70 "special edition" Aura 2?
