See post #9. Note the title of the Thread.

This had to do with an ongoing joke for old-time 'Mobilereaders' that Kobo was going to release a new ebook reader almost every day or every year...(it's been so long that I can't remember the exact details). Anyway, we got some mileage out of it: They failed to release one during one year, and I think one was advertised to come out. Now, the source - Good-Ereader - from which the announcement originated (I believe) is another source of much hilarity. "I guess you had to be there / Such a different place," as Brian Wilson states on one of his songs.
