I think he's being deliberately misleading.
I've read his comment carefully and he doesn't actually deny the rumor I reported. He did a very good job of tiptoeing around the rumor, but he does not actually make a statement contrary to the rumor.
He says that the Aura HD was under development for "more than a year" but he makes no statement about the intended launch date. He said nothing about whether B&N was going to buy the screens for a Spring launch. He also didn't say anything about whether Kobo changed their launch date.
At this point the only response Kobo has made is an obfuscation, not a denial. Absent any other statement I am going to conclude that they are avoiding an explicit denial because it would be a lie.
While I respect them for trying to avoid lying, at this point the lack of a denial is an admission that the rumor is true.

He said 'the rumour is false'.
Anyway, I just received my tracking number and so did many others. Looks like a new batch has come out of production at Foxconn.
