I owned and used a Kobo Aura H2O (version 1) for a bunch of years (still have it; recently bought a Clara BW as a replacement). I can tell you that the memory card option was a HUGE PITA; so much so that I stopped using the extra card.

The Kobo would keep complaining about the card not being installed or other problems with it (I forget now). I would have to pull the card out, push it back in, reboot the device - all kinds of crap like that and it would happen over and over. So eventually I just pulled the card out and used the device without it. So, don't try to find one! Maybe they've improved things since then, but I'm kind of guessing that there aren't many models now that have it (I think), so maybe it turned out to be generally a bad idea?
