Uh?
The screen shot says "Out of Stock"!!! How is this being back again???? Maybe Walmart just don't sell as many units as they'd like to and this has nothing to do with availability from Kobos stock? I mean it is expensive for an ereader and Walmart is catering to the not so rich masses, right? |

And I did say neither says anything about the device being discontinued, because a shop can list something out of the stock simply because they don't have it in stock any longer. |

As of this writing, searching for "kobo forma" at walmart.com shows that it is marked "clearance", price is $199.96 down from $279.99. Methinks I'm going to get a spare while I can.

^ Methinks there is more than likely going to be a second generation Forma on the horizon, based upon this LOW price! [Post #23]
I'm hoping the replacement (in whatever incarnation) will be between $199. - $225. I'm convinced that the light issue will no longer be present on this new one - just guessing, though. And complaints about the splotchy, uneven lighting on the Libra suggests that it, too, may be relegated to the 'Graveyard of Abandoned ebook Readers'.
