If something isn't announced soon I'll probably just give up and get one of the Boox Novas.
There is a new type of e-paper out called DES (display electronic slurry) which supposedly offers better contrast & resolution and can also integrate an on-cell touch at a reduced cost compared to e-ink. I hope Kobo experiments with this.
