UPDATE:
The Abe explorer is now installed. The database has been loaded with the blockchain successfully. I'll be working on getting the web page up and running later today. Once that's done, I'll take a look at the DNS seeder.

UPDATE:
I haven't had much time this weekend but I've been able to take a look at 3 PoS wallets.
1. Peercoin - Uses nodes to aid connection speed (stable, not true staking, but allows use by PoS coins)
2. Librexcoin - True staking wallet (but had problems in use)
3. Blackcoin - Decentralized - They use Coinomi officially so I'm not sure what's happening there.
The best match would be a mix of 2 and 3.
For now, the Peercoin offering is the best to go forward with. I'm going to speak to a team of developers I've used before to see if they can get up to speed and come up with something (a mix of 2/3). It sounds like a lot to ask, but I'll ask anyway. They've done it before.
I've compiled and installed the Android wallet for Peercoin. Librexcoin is not available, and the Blackcoin wallet has a serious compile issue (I'm happy to be corrected here).
So the next thing is to get an ABE explorer built and start building the Kobocoin wallet to the Peercoin specs. Matthew, who wrote the code, has said if I'm not done in a month he might help me out, so fingers crossed that he's not needed.
There's already a VPS in place so I can get started on it later today.
I'll let you know how I get on.

UPDATE:
The kobocoinj software was configured and running today, but unfortunately the core bitcoinj does not work with PoS. So that has to be shelved. And the existing wallet also has to be shelved.
There's a peercoin implementation of a PoS wallet and a modified bitcoinj that I'll take a look at tomorrow. They're both available on github. It's a clone of the same Schildbach wallet, so working with it shouldn't be too different.

Librex coin also has a mobile wallet that stakes.

its cheap enough at a 12k market cap why not hold a little
Jup enough growth possible.
If the plans are cool
.I see this as a potential long-term coin.
Only this going to be a long way to bring KOBO to Africa i think.
Check here though - https://twitter.com/followers - It's already happening. The Android wallet is now the bottleneck.

Android wallet update:
The packager installer works OK
install
install
menu'd
in the app (on bitcoin testnet hence the mBTC and currency being striked out)
I'm using the bitcoin test network until kobocoinj is up and running and then I'll point the app at the kobocoin blockchain (after testing).
I like scanning QR codes, even when I know it's wrong!
And finally ... the kobocoin signature!
Next step is to get kobocoinj up and running. But not now. I'm going to get some rest and spend some time with my daughters (when they wake up!)

Good work Dev, keep it up

But when it is really be used there, the investors at these prices will be rewarded big. Very big.
Sooo, yes maybe it is interested to keep ~10k in my "pocket" for a while
.Hope more people decide to do the same.
