> Pretty sure that, these days, Tolino devices are literally just Kobo hardware with Tolino firmware loaded onto them.

I only read the German Wikipedia entry [0], but the way that sounds is that they are different hardware, but now using an adapted Kobo OS (with ways to switch between the normal Kobo mode and Tolino). But that’s just my impression, I have no further clue :D
