In case it hasn't been posted elsewhere, there's a post on Reddit that contains a 10% discount code for the Elipsa: https://www.reddit.com/r/kobo/commen...ipsa_preorder/

It (currently) works in the UK too, as I cancelled my pre-order and then re-ordered the pre-order using the discount code. It worked out at a nice £35 discount on the new pre-order.

Thank you! It worked in the U.S. too. I cancelled my pre-order, then reordered using the code, and the total was $40 less.

Why do Kobo's web pages always show the Forma sideways?

Not sure what you mean by that. When I look at Kobo's page for the Forma, it shows 6 images for the Forma. 4 of the images show portrait mode while the other 2 show landscape mode. Looking at the combined ereader page, the only device shown in landscape is the Libra H2O until you hover on the image.

Unfortunately it doesnt work in Spain or France and the UK store doesnt ship outside of the UK
Anyone knows a code for a EU country ?

It worked on the US Kobo Store! $40 off. Thanks for the tip!

I have no plan to buy it, as I certainly have better ones - Likebook Alita and Boox Note Air.
The only reason I can think of, apart from the features of the above mentioned devices, is that it's a Kobo.

I don't think Google Translate failed in this simple case, but to review in German

Der einzige Grund, der mir neben den Eigenschaften der oben genannten Geräte einfällt, ist, dass es sich um einen Kobo handelt.

I think John F is wondering why you replied to a question that was directed at "those who have or plan to get this" when, by your own admission, you "have no plan to buy it".

I know, but do I necessarily have to answer the question asked?

I think our confusion is that last paragraph. Is this saying that you won't be purchasing one since it IS a Kobo, or that others will purchase it since it IS a Kobo?
