I just got the Glo. Had a PW1 and have a PW2. Was happy with the PW2 until I couldn't get 200 books to fit on it (another forum) - some of the books are over 200mb and they are my favorites. I camp a lot and need to carry my favorites with me - never know what I'm in the mood to read.

Anyway, went looking for an ereader comparable to the PW2, but with an sd slot. Found the Glo in a nearby store and got it yesterday.

Read a couple of short books on the Glo. I would say the lighting and page turning speed are comparable to the PW1. However, the background is much lighter on the Glo than either of the PWs - of course that might just be the particular ones that I have. After reading on the Glo, I tried reading on the PW2 - couldn't do it! The Glo has so much darker and clearer fonts that there is no eye strain at all - and I can make the fonts smaller so I can read more per page. And, I don't have to "fiddle" with my ebooks (to make sure they are not too large) to get my favorites to fit - love that micro sd!

All comes down, of course, to reading habits, needs. Just wanted to give my opinion of the 2.
