I guess I should offer a few comments after using the Aura for 5 days. I have an Android tablet and previously I had a Kindle eInk reader, but not the glow type. This is my first self-lit eink reader, and I'm glad I got it. I would not consider a new eink reader that was not self-lit after using the Aura.

The resolution is also a plus. This comes into effect with something I don't recall on the Kindle, and that is the Aura has a lot of different built-in fonts to choose from. I was always a fan of Georgia, and went to it out of habit. After a few days, I decided to experiment with some of the other fonts, and found that I like Amasis even more on the Aura, although I never cared for Amasis on my tablet. I think part of that is the high resolution, because Amasis is a lighter font and I think benefits from the greater pixel density, and maybe also from eink in general.

Bottom line is this is a gadget that I'm glad I bought.
