It looks like the new Libra will support the stylus, and I've seen a lot of people complaining about the note-taking feature not being good enough on their Elipsas and Sages (bugged / slow / drains the entire battery in 30 minutes etc). I'm wondering if Kobo has put any effort into improving this experience in the new Libra?

Great questions. There was that questionare a few months back which focused a lot on cloud support, so that might be a premier feature for the color models that they want to keep a lid on.

I own a first gen Elipsa and note taking on it is truly slow & buggy. Quoth seems to have no issues with his Sage, though. At any rate, I liked the improvements they made with the Elipsa2E. Aside from color highlight support, I hope they fix syncing between devices. It’s still possible to create highlights in my Kobo app on my iPad that never show up on the Elipsa, and visa versa.

I don’t recall waiting a long while for an update before the Elipsa 2E was released, though. Maybe this wait is because they’re overhauling into 5.0 territory.
