It can be pre-ordered for €169 at various german bookstores and is going to hit shelves "soon". (There is no definite release date, yet.)

As always, the device is manufactured by Kobo and will be based on the upcoming Kobo Libra 2.

There are some notable differences though:

- The Tolino will "only" have 16 GB of storage instead of 32 GB.
- It has a 1,8 Ghz AllWinner B300 Quad-Core processor. (The Libra 2 only has an unspecified 1 Ghz CPU.)
The different storage isn't that unusual, but, not the CPU. I can see a higher spec CPU might be desirable for Android, but, I would expect that meant a lot of other changes as well.

- It's operating system will be based on Android 8.1, according to various news outlets.
- There is no mention of Bluetooth or Audiobook support on the website.
It does say:

But, I don't see any other mention of audiobooks.
