Since the last two are coming from Canada, I'll keep both of them, barring problems. I'll probably just cancel the Walmart order once the Kobo ordered Clara HD shows up.
Because of the pandemic (I think), the Kobo chat feature is currently a bot. What can't be answered that way is not answered at all. At least that's how it was a week ago. No phone calls right now, either. Maybe next week that'll change. I hope so if I need it. Their help account on Twitter is staffed by a real person, though, who tends to respond about 24 hours after receiving a direct message.
An odd thing about the Kobo site. The store for buying the devices is a Spotify one. Unusual for a company of this size in my experience. It's like buying a bag of coffee from one of the specialty roasters. Same software.

Hello, another one here waiting for the bargain to ship from Walmart. What is strange is that I bought it on the 18th, got a backorder email on the 28th and they haven't still cancelled the order, which gives a bit of hope in this shit selling operation by Walmart. I understood they cancel after 10 days.
The more modest bargain in the official website of kobo is now soldout wow
