It looked rather similar to Nate Hoffelder's The Digital Reader blog where he mentions the Nia and hopes that it would have an eInk Kaleido though it is not mentioned in the electronic label. Other than the unnamed source, of course.


A color Kobo eReader that takes notes with a stylus? Sounds like a ReMarkable killer if true.

I was just about to buy a Libra off Walmart.com, but they are sold out and only highly marked up, third party offers are available (though not as grotesquely marked up as can be found on eBay.) Maybe I’ll pick up a Clara HD instead and wait to see what the new model looks like. (I tried to get a $50 Aura off Walmart two months ago, but they canceled my order).

A color Kobo is speculation right now. It’s more likely that the Nia is the new bottom end, filling the hole left by the discontinued Aura.
