Here is a picture of my Aura. I had left it on a shelf since dropping it and when I went to get a picture of it, I discovered that the screen damage has changed. I included a red box approximately where the original damage appeared. I don't believe that I have bumped it significantly or dropped it since the screen broke so I don't know why it would have changed.

The light still works fine as does the touch sensitivity (I can select items that are in the broken area.)

I would have bought a cover for my Aura but I have not been able to find one that both fits it and doesn't require me to take it off to use the reader.
