Just preordered the Aura One
I just pre-ordered the Aura One from Fnac (France), for 218.50€ since I am an "adhérent" (-5%). It will be available on September 1st.

Well, Fnac has always delivered at the announced time or earlier in my experience. Not yours?

If you go to their website and the store locator and pop in your local store, it will indicate in the facilities section if they stock Kobo goodies.

I'm stuck between the image of you using your winsome smile to get the WH Smith people to unpack the devices quickly and trying to work out how to catch and tame a wild ereader. Or should they be left to run free, frolicking across the landscape, using their coloured lights to mesmerise their prey?

Here, I use my winsome smile combined with my attractive safari suit and pith helmet

That is the intended use of the orange night mode! Prepare to be mesmerised . . . .

In my experience Argos will get them in far quicker than WHSmith, and also WHSmith will have them to order long before we ever see a demo model in a store. All my Kobos have come from Argos.

Lucky you! There is no pre-order option here in Germany and it is said to be available at the 6th of September.

I try to tell myself this is a good thing, this way I can read all the reviews and comments of actual users before I order. But whom am I kidding, I am practically green with envy for you to get it a week earlier than I will.

I was told on this forum that it was most probably an error from FNAC and that it should be the 6th. It will be welcome when it comes, as long as I have time to play with it and get used to it before I go away for a couple of weeks September 25th.

I'm already working on it in Calibre, created its own virtual library, started choosing which books I'll be taking out of storage (my Archive virtual library), and polishing them and all.
