I see that (about the buttons) now. I wasn't very observant. I'm guessing the Carta 1200 screen doesn't mean Mobius? It doesn't appear to have warm light either (but I guess this is would be the norm for a Note Taker / eReader). At least it looks like it will use ePubs (which I thought was a big drawback with the Sonys).
Definitely not something I would buy, but it looks interesting. I don't see any mention of audio books, so the Bluetooth might be for a keyboard?

I think it may use the same screen as the Remarkable 2 and Note Air which is not Mobius either. Both of those also have the side chin thing because of the screen design and how the connections have to go. I bet it does audiobooks too it's just not a key feature.
I think this is gunning for the Remarkable 2 which is why I think it's going to be $400 for everything. The RM2 is $400 but you need to add $50 for the pen and it doesn't have a front light. Plus it's a horrid ePub reader and I can't see Kobo messing that up.
EDIT: Just to add the Boox Note Air is $480 with a front light, 32GB as well and a Stylus and probably has much faster processor and more RAM if previous Kobo's are an indication. I imagine Kobo has better volume deals to bring the price down. $500+ also looks really bad up against an iPad and Pencil.
