Meanwhile, back at the Kobo US store, existing Clara HD is $30 off.

Actually $10 less than a Nia.

Grab it now!

No, I don't think it is wrong. Maybe Kobo will have something nice

And I like the idea of a Clara HD replacement with the updates to match the Libra 2.

I like the idea of Deep Ocean Blue as a color for the new Kobo. It's just a shame that it's another 6" screen.

OK, we'll get Kobo to do a 5" screen and an 8" screen like the Aura H2O and with a much heftier battery.

This is purely speculation, but I would guess that the next Clara will have USB-C and bluetooth.

If this is indeed the next Clara then this is what is listed


And it seems there will be four color variants if these cases will be representative of actual colorways of the device: https://www.itnest.com.au/hardware/s...bo+506#results

-Black
-Sea Green
-Ocean Blue
-Coral Reef

I hadn't even read the FCC submission when I posted that . I assumed USB-C since all of their newer devices use it, and there isn't really any reason to use microUSB anymore. I assumed bluetooth since I'd imagine they'd want to expand access to audiobooks, plus the timing kinda matches the warm comfortlight and the pattern of new features in their low-level devices.

Consider the page shows: "SLEEPCOVER" as part of the description for those listed items, how do I read that as the colour of the ereader itself anymore than placing a Clara HD in a blue or rose red sleepcover affects the colour of the Clara HD.

According to SAR- and RF-Testreports on the FCC page the device is going to have WLAN (2.4 and 5 Ghz) and Bluetooth (Image 1). Also USB-C (Image 2).

And it seems there will be 2 models, one with 16 and another with 32 GB of storage. (Image 3)
