Hello, PWGD, and I don't blame you for introducing yourself. It must be difficult to lurk around the grounds undetected when one is huge!

Comparing the new Paperwhite with the Aura, if i manage to purchase an aura with no issues is there any reason not to keep it in preference to the preorderd new paperwhite? on paper the aura seems to trump the paperwhite in most respects. Pdf viewing, storage, customisation etc

Specs can't always account for our prefs or the results of empirical tests. The reason to keep the Aura and not the PW2 would be that you preferred it in real life and not in tech tables. It sounds as though you might not know whether that's true just yet.
Can you keep both for a brief time before deciding? You might find comparing them fun as well as instructive!
Besides which, if you want bleeding edge e-ink tech, there's the PW2's
Carta screen to consider (though, personally, I'd still buy the Aura because I prefer epub to Mobi and Kindles seem increasingly difficult to jailbreak).
