To answer your earlier question, when the Clara 2E was announced on Sep 1, 2022, people already knew about it at least a month before. In May of that year, Nate of the ereader Blog was wondering aloud if Kobo would even release something that year. So from July or so when the first hints arrived (that's a guesstimate on my part. I couldn't find the thread), to wild speculation like in this thread to "Hey, there's a case for something called the Kobo Clara 2E on Rakuten's site" in August, to an official announcement in September, the whole process only took 2-3 months, closer to two. The Elipsa had a small window from FCC discovery to official announcement as well. Maybe we'll hear something this month?

The timing would be odd. Instead of releasing it before Christmas to potentially increase sales, they'll let our Christmas present be information about a future release?
