Well,
I want to buy one of those, but I can't decide which one.
I do like the looks of Aura more, but, that's not important.
Nether is the capacitive or multi-touch screen.
So with the price difference in my country (175€ to 148€) and the slight sharper fonts, I'm thinking about buying the Glo.

The only thing that's stopping me is the battery.
I remember reading somewhere that Aura had 1500mAh vs. the 1000mAh battery of the Glo.
That and the, almost, no refresh new screen system makes me wonder…
Does anybody know the battery consumption of ether of those devices to percent per hour?
Par example, my mobile takes 7% of battery for every reading hour.
I've read the Kobo estimates, but I would like real world numbers…

Thank you in advance.
