The store here usually end up buying my electronics stuff from here, JB HiFi, still has the Sage as pre-order but shows "Release Date - 19/10/21". The Libra 2 had that as well, but, a few days before the 19th change the date to 04/11/2021. And has since changed it to 11/11/2021.
I tried to phone them about the Sage early last week and they couldn't tell me anything. I ended up ordering direct from Kobo and the last status is "Onboard for delivery Tue 2 Nov, 8.33am" with an expected time of "Today, 1.12pm-3.12pm". Which is weirdly accurate and inaccurate at he same time.
The other reason I went to Kobo was that I wanted a stylus. I'm not that sure if I will use it, or that my wife will when she claims it, but, I wanted to try it. And the store had them at $129 but Kobo listed them at $69. No idea why there is such as difference the ereaders and other accessories are all listed as the same price in both stores.
And yes, I am constantly looking out the front window especially when I hear a noise
