Well, Borders will not exist anymore at that point Well they won't stop fulfilling existing orders, but anyway...

you can add this:

Ah, Benjamin, I checked the tracking info on your kobo - it is coming to you via Australia.

You beat me to it. I was just thinking the same thing.

It was on my doorstep when I got home from work today (obviously the postie didn't think anything that light could be valuable...).
On charge now, then see about the software updates etc.

That's great news for you - did your Touch have an exciting journey on its way to NZ or does it look like it came direct?

No, no diversions to far off exotic places....
It's all charged up now and I'm happy to say working well.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!
My Kobo has arrived - am I excited or what?
I thought I was being optimistic hoping for it to arrive next week and here it is. It somehow managed to visit Germany too.
I'm off to charge/load/play/read with it right now.

Hmmmm... I'm not quite as excited as I was a little while ago.
When I opened the box my Kobo was split open at the side - the quilted bit was not connected properly to the front. It clicked into place easily and seems to work OK.
I've done the setup and downloaded a book but on close inspection the gap between the front and the back is uneven.
I really hope there isn't something wrong with it.
