Opinions differ, and it really is quite subjective. Some people prefer the slightly bluish cast that you get on the Glo. I personally prefer the more yellow/white than the blue/white and I think the Kindle PW2 is that bit better than both the Glo and the Aura. However, if you like the slightly bigger screen of the Aura HD, then it is arguably looks the best of the lot.
It is also worth noting there is a difference between those with the infra-red touch screen (Glo & Aura HD) and those with the capacitive touch screen (Aura & PW). They seem to be finding it a little more difficult to get a really clear screen with the capacitive touch models, which is why the Aura HD looks good even in comparison to the PW2 (which has the very latest eink screen tech).
Incidentally, the Kindle PW suffers similar issues with variance of the 'quality' of the light that is mentioned in this thread, when the light is on, some have a slightly bluish tinge, others more yellow, it seems to be a manufacturing issue of the lighted readers that there is some variance in them.
