See FCC ID NOIKBN306 for what little information isn't under a confidentiality agreement.
so apparently my blog no longer exists ...

the world is moving to USB C, whether you like it or not...

someone in Brussels will mandate it for all of EU, at some point, they are already on a standardisation crusade cut reduce the wasteful number of mobiel chargers in ciculation
I don't have any USB-C devices.

I do however have several devices that use the older mini-USB plug

I would like a new 6" Kobo with 16gb, hopefully waterproof, and coming in white would be a plus. Even better if I can get it through Walmart (can smuggle it into the house much easier!)

And if it was 5" instead of 6" , it would be perfect (a girl can dream).

Buy Clara and put any card there (I put 32, enough for me). The Tolino analogue will not have a ComfortLight Pro backlight.

If it was a new 7" or 8" Reader without buttons, it would be perfect.

I skipped that model, wish I hadn't. I'd have to take a chance on ebay to get one now.

What model are you referring to? A Clara? Or the Tolino Clara clone?

I'm referring to the Kobo Clara HD. I have the Glo HD and the Aura H20. I prefer the 6" size. I'm in the US, so I don't think they sell the Tolino here.

ETA I thought the Clara HD was discontinued but I see it is on the Kobo web site!

If you take a Tolino that uses an internal SD card, would it be possible to replace it with a Kobo SD card and convert the Tolino into a Kobo?
