Yeah, I know, it’s the RC Cola of e-readers but Kobo is out with a new $99 ad-supported model. 6-inch display, touch screen, ads that the company promises will show up outside your reading experience.

Of course, if you don’t mind ads you can get a Kindle for $79 these days and get fuller integration into the Amazon book store. No one is still reading this item. My typing is like a tree falling in the forest.
