That's Wonderful! I guess choosing Kobo for a online order was a mistake.....

Yeah, with Amazon they time the shipping so you can have it on or before release day. Disappointing.

I really don't understand Kobo's "release" dates. I was surprised with people in France having a delivery date of Sept 1 and I figured that was a mistake on FNAC's behalf, but apparently people are getting them so it was right. And having said that I went with Chapters-Indigo online and mine is still scheduled for delivery Sept 2 (awaiting P/U by UPS currently). I know in past they have had devices show up in store before the "release" date and in one case in store before the online pre-orders arrived.
But Kobo is notoriously bad at sending tracking info and I wouldn't trust Kobo CS to have any actual clue about when they were shipping the pre-orders so there is still hope that people will get their Kobo direct orders on or before the 6th.

Thank you for checking......I cancelled my order with Kobo and placed a order with Chapters/Indigo and due to the exchange rate I saved $38.00USD on the deal.

I believe I took a hit on the delivery date (I'm guessing end of September) but Kobo just pissed me off with their lack of information on their site. I can't believe the company that makes the device makes you wait when a retailer is already selling it.

bizarre...

Got mine this afternoon. First comments in the "just preordered" thread, the main one copied in the new Kobo Aura One owners thread I hadn't noticed.

Good to know and thanks.. Your right a tentative deal.. Better that than a full on strike...
