Yes, I am very, very happy with the Aura. My Touch is in Dubai for the summer with a friend and my DH is using the Glo. I don't miss either one (the devices, not the people).
With 4GiG in main memory, I don't need an SD card, but I prefer to keep my sideloaded books on one. I don't keep all that many books on the device. Calibre has them all and they are backed up to the cloud, but I seldom have more than 50-75 books on the device itself.
My backup device (a Touch) has evey digital book I have ever had on it. Just in case I have to get out of Dodge fast, I guess.

Awesome, I'm glad to hear you still like it.
When I was a kid, I actually remember saying to my parents, "I wish I had a magic book, that would be, like, all the books in the world. But it would still be book-shaped and not get any heavier"; this was after having to decide how many and which books to bring along on a trip. It was also around 1978.
I am amazed that I now have my "magic book", and so I keep all my books on it--because I can. And because I love having them all in one place. I can DJ my reading now, just like iPod let me DJ what I wanted to listen to when I was on the go.
I might ask my husband to try and read my SD card for me when he gets home, but I don't think it's humanly possible without magnification. I do know this one looks exactly like it:

Edit: Okay, my Aura processed everything on my SD card with no problem, but when I powered it down and back up again, I'm getting the same thing--it's frozen on the square dancing. The Aura also has firmware 2.5.2 running on it.
If I can get it hooked up to my PC, I might dump everything on the card and start over--see if that does anything.
