I've had my Aura for a few days now and am on the fence. The only reason I replaced my (dead) Glo with an Aura instead of another Glo was the Glo at it's dimmest setting was still too bright. Well that part I like about the Aura.

I find the screen frame is quite narrow, and with the flat screen I am constantly hitting the screen with my thumbs while holding it to read. My hands are small and I typically have my thumb(s) on the front of the device to hold it - so lots of accidental page turns, bookmarks or opening the settings page. Annoying!

And the red power button (on a black case) is just so very ugly. Who made that design decision?!

Not sure if these next ones are firmware issues that apply across the board (it's been a while since I updated previous devices), but I was surprised that having previously had a Touch and a Glo I had to google how to delete books from the device! There also doesn't seem to be an obvious way to mark a book read if you don't want to flip through all the junk publishers stuff into the back.
