And, unless I've misread something, it doesn't have a headphone socket or bluetooth compatibility, so you can't use it for audiobooks.
What actual value is offered by increasing the storage in a low-end model?
I know most won't need 16gb or 32gb. But it sounds better. So it may help to sell better. Kobo could use this as a one of the selling points vs the Kindle Basic.
