I like the fact the screen is bigger - close to 7 inch.
Glo is a little short when reading manga or comics.
Does anybody know if the Aura supports PDF overflow to make PDF easier to read?
The tech specs states:
eBooks: EPUB, PDF, and MOBI
Is Mobi support back? Because Mobi support was absent from the Glo.
I wonder how Amazon will respond? Will they revive the Kindle DX line?

Unfortunately, I bought the Glo about 1 month ago, so I don't know if I will get the Kobo Aura HD or not.
I was planning to wait at least 5 years for a sub $200 colour ereader to be produced.

I had the Kobo Touch which supposedly supported MOBI. Yeah right, their mobi rendering was just like a text file in Windows--absolutely no formatting, paragraphs ran together, ugly as sin and difficult to read. Meh! And the Touch was so buggy that I returned it. Kobo does have excellent CS, but their programming team could never get the Touch sorted out. And the thing I hated most about the Touch was their rendering for kePub books (from the Kobo store) were pretty good but side loaded ePubs were rendered differently and not very well.
