Part of me wants one just to see how pointless it is.

when pressing a button on the thing you're already holding is too much... kobo is there for you.

Its probably aimed at people with disabilities who use a stand of some sort to hold the screen. The stands with an arm on the end of a clamp are pretty sweet when lying down even if you don't have disabilities.

Only 2 out of 5 Kobos have page turn buttons to begin with.

I'm super excited! I was so mad that the Bluetooth Kindles wouldn't support these.

It's a luxury, but I love propping up the e-reader and using one of these to turn pages with my hands snuggly under the blanket.

Looks like the date was pushed to December 2nd, so a longer wait sadly.

I surely hope they release an instructional video.

Would be nice if they released some info on what this does, the size of battery, and stuff like that.

And a benchmark.
