I registered just so I could comment. I received my Aura on the 23rd Sept. It had some of the light pinpricks, but I wasn't overly concerned.
But then, after less than a week of use, I noticed light bleeding from the lower right and left sides of the device. Upon closer inspection, I could see that the top most layer of the screen was coming away at these points. It was raising above the bezel by less than a millimetre, but it was allowing the light to escape from the sides of the device. I could push it back down, but whatever adhesive they used wouldn't hold and it just kept raising. The Aura had never left the Kobo Sleep cover I ordered with it.
After taking some photos, I contacted Kobo and the unit is being RMAd. I was surprised at how painless the process was, although I was miffed that the Aura wan't up to scratch since this is my first foray into the Kobo world. Here's hoping the replacement hasn't any issues. My Nook Glow will suffice until then.
