Plus with calibre it's easy to keep your library in mobi too (files are too small anyway) and makes the closed garden thing of the kindle really a non issue.
I like that I can buy from amazon, have them back everything up, access my annotations (which work like a charm) from everywhere, and get all the amazon perks in general and also be able to put in there whatever epub I want, via calibre's piece of cake epub to mobi.
And it feels great to have stable, bug free software to use. Even the browse is really neat, article mode works great. I wish they'd add a copy past thing system wide, a proper rss reader and a notepad, but at least for the last two there are work arounds.
I simply love my kpw, and it's not just that the screen is gorgeous, it's because the software has given me a very enjoyable bug free experience, where I could focus only on what I want to do, that is read and annotate.

Thanks for your feedback. The Aura really seems like a nice piece of hardware but since the software is basically the same... I'll wait to see what will be Amazon's reply before deciding if I upgrade my Glo to Aura or "go to the dark side"
