Yesterday somebody over at Mobileread posted hyperlinks to a web site that sells Kobo ereaders with listings for 3 new Kobo ereaders, together with two fashions that appear to have coloration E Ink screens, and it appears to be like like these new units would possibly in truth be the three Kobo ereaders which are listed on the FCC web site.
Each time a brand new Kobo ereader is about to get launched, it reveals up early on some random web site that sells Kobo ereaders, after which the web page will get taken down till the system get launched, so the standard sample matches.
It’s laborious to inform a lot from the listings as a result of they don’t reveal any precise details about the brand new units apart from the names, and there aren’t any photos, however the product numbers match those given within the FCC paperwork for the three new units which are speculated to get launched this yr so it appears legit.
If the listings are correct, the three new Kobo ereaders embrace a coloration Kobo Libra and a coloration Kobo Clara, and what seems to be a Kobo Clara with a daily black and white display screen (the hyperlinks to these pages will in all probability cease working quickly).
The one factor that’s bizarre about that’s the present Kobo Clara 2E was launched a couple of yr and a half in the past so it doesn’t actually make sense for Kobo to launch a brand new model of it already, particularly for the reason that final Clara was in the marketplace for over 4 years earlier than it acquired changed, however possibly they modified among the {hardware} and wish each the colour and the black and white variations to be the identical.
I additionally discover it a bit odd they’d launch a 6-inch system with a coloration display screen since most coloration content material is healthier suited to bigger screens, however PocketBook and Onyx each began out with 6-inch coloration ereaders as nicely.
What do you assume? Do you’ve any curiosity in a coloration Kobo Libra or a coloration Kobo Clara?
