Are they having financial problems? Are they planning to quit ereader business altogether? I must admit I'm worried.
I agree. Also there was an hour long interview with the CEO couple of months back, but that felt like they were intendedly avoiding the topic about new ereaders and such. That was strange and very annoying.
At the same time I wouldn't think that they have financial problems, as the parent company Rakuten could help on that. Just guessing here of course.
But there’s definitely a demand for a Libra BW or an updated Sage or Forma, yet it’s unclear why they just don’t take that step.
