Hopefully Glow 2.0 will remedy this situation.
I went to my local B&N and looked at the NST and Glow side by side and the text was really washed out on the Glow. I read from a few different sources that later batches of Glows didn't have this issue so I went to Best Buy (30 day returns) and picked one up. I prefer the text on the Glow over my NST. There is a difference between the two but I think the Glow has slightly better contrast than my NST.

I was on the fence to upgrade since the Glow came out but I couldn't be happier with it right now (As long as I don't get any "light leaks").
