I for one do like the resolution and dpi and so far it's head and shoulders above any other e-reader or tablet I've used in the past. To be fair, my opinion is based on how much using the device mimics a "real book experience" and so far it's holding up quite nicely.
I agree for the most part. I do like an ereader to go beyond the "dead trees" experience. I have "old" eyes, so the ability to chose different fonts, change the font size to a more readable size, and, most important, illuminate the page to help me see the text. All of this is done with excellent resolution.

I am well pleased with the Aura's performance in the things I need/expect in an ereader.
