If having a larger screen in particular is important to you, as well as it having an SD card slot and more customisation options, then its probably worth the extra £40 to buy the Aura HD.
While the Aura HD is a premium device and that's why it's a little more expensive, if the larger screen isn't really that important, or not really an issue at all, then no, it's not really worth the extra £40. There are things that are better about the PW than the Aura HD and vice versa, but it's mainly the really nice screen and it's bigger size that sets the Aura HD apart.
In terms of possible new devices, well it's usually around Autumn that they are announced. However, as the Aura HD is supposedly a limited edition, it seems unlikely there will be a newer version of it, the standard Aura might get an update, and possibly the Paperwhite, but there's a possibility the latter will follow the Aura's tablet like flush screen, so not of any interest to you anyway.
