Well some of us prefer the look of the lighted eink screen to the look of a backlit screen. Tablets have shine/glare that I personally don't want to stare at for hours at a time. I love the look of the good quality eink screens, the Aura HD and the Kindle Paperwhite are among the best. Even unlighted screens are preferable....I read for 3 hours on my Sony T2 today. At the mall. I wouldn't want to be dragging a heavy tablet around to read on.
That Kobo Aura HD screen is just awesome. Although it is a little yellower than my PW1 screen, when held side by side. Doesn't really matter, to me.
