The Kobo Aura One is back in stock again from Kobo’s website. The US store, UK store, and Canadian store all show a limited quantity back in stock. It remains to be seen how long the “limited quantity” will last. Hopefully they have enough to stay in stock for longer than a day or two […]

Why is Kobo Aura One Always Out of Stock?
There’s something fishy going on with the Kobo Aura One. It’s gotten to the point where there has to be a good reason for it to be constantly out of stock from Kobo’s website, as least from the US Kobo site. Whenever they get more in stock they last for less than one day before […]
New Firmware Update Available for Kobo eReaders
Kobo has released a new software update for current and past Kobo ereaders, all the way back to the original Kobo Touch. The new firmware version is 4.3.8842.

Kobo Launches Kobo Plus eBook Subscription Service
Yesterday Kobo announced the launch of a new ebook subscription service called Kobo Plus.

It’s been out of stock from Kobo’s website for several months now, pretty much since it was released in September (yet it’s been selling from Chapters.Indigo most of that time). The official sleepcover for the […]
Kobo Glo HD Still Available for Cheap

But the Kobo Glo HD isn’t totally gone just yet. There […]
Installing KOReader and Kobo Start Menu on Kobo eReaders
One advantage with Kobo ereaders is the fact that there’s an active development community among Kobo users who help add extra features and tools to Kobo devices that the stock software lacks. There are a number of easy-to-install patches like nightmode for white text on a black background and full screen mode to get rid […]
