Hard to believe I got my first e-Ink for Christmas 2009, also sight unseen. That was a huge gamble. I wasn't sure I would like it at all. But I sure loved it the fall of 2010 when I was commuting an hour on the subway every day and got to read the whole time. So much easier to hold an ereader on the train than a book.

Now, almost 3.5 years later, I know more about what I want in an ereader. When I saw the specs on the Glo, I figured that would be my perfect reader, but I'm even more excited about the Aura. So glad I waited on buying the Glo.
