New 10.3″ Kobo Elipsa 2E Details Revealed
For some odd reason an unboxing video of the new Kobo Elipsa 2E was uploaded to Facebook about a month ago, so it would appear that Kobo is getting set to release their second generation eNote soon. It doesn’t look like a lot has changed from the 1st generation Kobo Elipsa. It has the same […]

Kobo is Such a Boring Company
It’s time for another ill-advised internet rant. I like Kobo’s ereaders and their ebook store is a good alternative to Amazon, but as a blogger, Kobo gives me practically nothing to work with.

Buy a Kobo Libra 2, Get 50% off a SleepCover

Most Kobo devices don’t officially support wirelessly transferring personal documents and ebooks at all. Only the Kobo Forma, the Kobo Sage, and the Kobo Elipsa officially support Dropbox. All […]

It looks like Kobo has already ended their Valentine’s Day sale on the Kobo Sage and Kobo Libra 2, but they’ve added another gift card promotion to their website. The deal varies by location. In the US you can get a $10 credit with the purchase of a $50+ Kobo gift card. In Canada it’s […]
List of Kobo eReaders with Built-in Support for Library eBooks
One of the features that sets Kobo ereaders apart from competing ereaders is the ability to download ebooks directly to Kobo devices from public libraries that support OverDrive. All of Kobo’s recent models support this feature, but their older ones do not. All of Kobo’s ereaders support getting library ebooks through OverDrive, but only the […]
