Since you are specifically stating the standard Aura and not the Aura HD, you are looking at two quite different options?

The T68 has the larger 6.8" screen, and it's more of an e-ink tablet than a simple ereader. It's better if you want to be able to install different ereader apps on it, hold a huge library of books on it, and possibly read some PDF's. Whereas the Aura has the standard 6" screen and is therefore a little smaller and lighter (there isn't really a huge difference in size and weight to be fair, although the Aura is one of the smaller ereaders out there), and will be a better option if you just want to read.

The T68 will definitely be more versatile, but it'll probably take a bit of time for you to learn how to get the best out of it.
