Well i just checked it out, i have a bn 2 miles from my house. It looks great.
I tested the glow light and as some online reviewers said its a huge improvement from the previous model. Its evenly distributed except for slignt shadows at the top where the light originates.This does not interfere with the text at all. It does have a bluish tint, but no lighted ereader i have seen mimicks a lighted paper page properly at all. Lighted ereaders are what what they are...... a lighted screen and they all look it, bluish, whitish or yellowish doesnt matter as far as i am concerned. Bottom line it looked nice.
Happily I noticed no light pinholes at all on the device. It feels great, comfortable, feels like it is coated with silicon. Very light and thin. It was hard to hold it completely because it was plugged into its charging tether. I didnt spend too much time messing with settings. Though i do wish that nook, kobo and kindle would have a margin format that could fit more text on the screen. (One of the things i like about my prs 650)
I am also happy to report that the white bezel does not interfere at all with the reading experience. The text looked just as crisp and clear as any reader i have ever used.

I just got a used prs 650 to hold me over. After hearing all the issues people were have with their kobo auras (which i wanted to get) i decided to hold off.
Since i was able to see a nook glowlight in person, i may get it. I liked what i saw. But i have patience and will wait for user reviews.
