Stoney, I sent you a PM with the direct link. The page still shows "in stock" maybe they were temporarily out when you looked earlier? Mine shipped the day after I ordered it. Good luck!

Just received my Aura today. Apparently Kobo refused to ship it to the Oregon warehouse of the package forwarding company I was using (shipito.com) - as a policy, but had no problem shipping it to the California warehouse of that same package forwarding company. Go figure. So I got to contribute $12 to the state of California in sales tax but at least I now have the device.

The Aura has an amazing screen btw, the lighting quality and coverage is fantastic.

So when did you end up ordering it? What was total time to delivery? I ordered mine last Thursday and it shipped this Tuesday. We are having massive wildfires so now mail service will be screwed up for a while, but I hope I get it soon.

Order (number 2) went through on May 31st, it shipped from Kobo on June 5th, reached CA on June 8th (Saturday), left USA Monday 10th and got here today Thursday 13th 2pm local time (I'm 11 hours ahead of EST) via FedEx priority.

Total time was 2 weeks, Kobo fulfillment taking half of this time and then 3 days each for the international legs, Canada -> USA and USA -> Thailand.

Prepper: Thanks for the info on the cover. My Aura is Espresso so I'm going to wait until I can find a matching cover.

By the way, I've had my Aura since May 13 and have had to charge it just once. It holds a charge better than any other ereader I've seen.

No Espresso's available on the Kobo site...I bet that was the most popular color!

Mine is also Espresso. I ordered this cover in brown (looks burnt orange in their photos): http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Smart...937545815.html

Haven't received it yet, I'll take some pics when it gets here if you're interested.
