For me, the Glo is close as it gets. I dislike the flush screen of the Aura and I prefer the matte black frame of the Glo (flush screen is easier to crack with covers flush against the entire surface, more smudges, more glare).
I love the 5" screens on the Sony 350s I have, it was the perfect reader and perfect size, but I really wanted a front light. The size of the Glo vs. the Sony 350 is only about 1/2" difference in height and width since the Glo doesn't have any physical buttons. And that's with covers on both of them (not the official Kobo cover though, a better slim fitting cover). And if the Sony is in the lighted cover, the Kobo Glo is then narrower by about 3/4".
I'd be tempted by a 5" Glo though to reduce the size even more, but I do like the bit larger screen reading size since it still fits pretty well in my pockets and tiny purse (although a bit snugger fit). But definitely would not be interested in a 5" Aura.
