For discussions sake, lets say it is the same CPU subfamily. Then I would assume it uses newer technology since it is 6 months younger. Of course, that is just my assumption, since the Aura has to push twice as many pixels as the Glo, and a 25% increase in CPU clock speed probably wouldn't result in 'faster page turns'.
The engadget review says "1GHz Freescale i.MX507 processor". I thought the Glo had the same, but google found another engadget review that states "Freescale, Solo 6 1GHZ Processor". I have no idea how those are related.
