Extended Warranties Now Available for Kobo eReaders
Here’s something I never noticed before. Kobo now offers 2 and 3-year extended warranties on Kobo ereaders when purchasing them through Kobo’s website. The extended warranties are called the Clyde Protection Plan. Amazon offers similar protection plans for Kindles through SquareTrade so it’s not surprising to see Kobo now doing the same. Personally, I’ve always […]
