Here's a link to their video about the Kobo Mini 2:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxmFHKQkiy0 He makes it sound like a wild guess that's valid because he's "the undisputed king of ereaders", and that really is a quote from the video. Actually that's probably true. He can claim to be the undisputed king because he's the only one vain enough to claim that title. Barry |

It sounds like that your iBooks somehow became your default app for pdfs. Not sure how to change that in iOS though.

Going on six months and this is what searching for "ebook" pops up: https://www.walmart.com/search/?query=ebook&cat_id=0 Fancy an RCA Voyager? Searching for "ebook reader" returns a listing headed by... Kindle Paperwhite. https://www.walmart.com/search/?meth...hProductResult Don't know about other places but the WalMarts near me don't carry Kobo either. Lots of cheap tablets, though. Some announcements carry more weight and commitment than others. Some "strategic alliances" mean: "We'll put a standard kiosk in all stores and heavily promote you", some mean "We'll run a two week promo sale", and some just mean " we'll add you to the list of approved sources store managers can order from. If they see the need." Mileage varies. Last edited by fjtorres; 06-20-2018 at 07:32 AM. |

Apparently, only independent book stores currently sell Kobo ereaders in brick and mortar stores in the US. The following is from the ABA website.

Well, early "back to school" sales have started and still no rumor about Kobos in Walmarts (or online). Christmas?
