New Kobo E-reading device scheduled for release Mothers Day!
http://goodereader.com/blog/electron...or-mothers-day

Questionable source I know, I remember getting so hyped up for the Voyage 2 these guys were assuring me of, to no avail... but I do have a feeling this one's legit. And I just bought myself a new H2O! ��

Hope this one's another large-ish one, I want to move over to the Kobos from the Kindles but my last forays with Kobo devices yielded hardware that was shockingly unpredictable in build quality, each device was totally different to the next, and had to exchange it about four times, and ended up just getting a voyage :/ but I really love epub rendering, and Kobos flexibility, and I'm sick of being walled in to Amazon's garden of crappy font choices, sizes, and that whole 'enhanced typesetting' Vs. poor rendering mess that each book is a gamble on... Cmon kobo, please don't disappoint! Take all of my money!!!

*shrug*. Might happen, might not; it's nothing more than speculation.

If one sentence sums up that website for me, its this one:

"It is currently unknown what type of e-reader Kobo is developing, but it is an e-reader."

Well, I guess it is good news that Kobo hasn't pivoted to being in the Thermonuclear Weapons business.

Well Canada and Japan both use the 2nd Sunday of May, so they have it covered no matter how you class where the Kobo comes from.

It seems that January and September are the only months of the year there isn't a mother's day in some country or other. On that basis, they will always release a new reader for mother's day *somewhere*

Yes, it's the fourth Sunday of Lent in the UK - three weeks before Easter Sunday - so it's a different date every year.

There has to be more proof of the existence of new Kobo reader than just hearsay.

"scheduled"?

Really? I think you meant "rumor".

In that case, they would have had a chance to create a device that drops like a bomb and annihilates everything else, though.
