Good luck getting a spec of detail or release date on any of those.

The 1200 seems to be from this year, the Kobo Sage & Clarissa being the first two known examples.

Maybe, and I'm only saying maybe, they list previously available models that were made with Carta XXXX as Carta 1200 because they just throw the latest Carta film on anything that they are making at the time. That would explain why all the info out of Eink only says "Carta".

Still, I'll be amazed if the new Glow (with capacitive touch) looks much different from the Glow2 (with capacitive touch). It seems that getting rid of a touch layer (like with the Glow3 IR model) is a bigger deal than Carta 1234.
And I am confused about when 1200 actually was released. I mixed it up with the announcement earlier this year of On-Cell Touch tech (or whatever it is called).
