As I posted in the Apple forum, Apple is changing its official policy on warranties to 2 years in Australia, in line with consumer laws which say that a "reasonable" warranty period must be abided by, and imply that "reasonable", for electronic goods, is around two years.
Has anyone tried to get a warranty repair between 12 and 24 months in Australia for a Kobo e-reader? Anyone currently got a faulty device in that time range since purchase? Check up on your consumer rights.
