I agree with this--I've had a PW2 for about a year; and really like it. My husband bought me an Aura HD as a birthday present and I really like it. I find both the screens very similar. I haven't run into any show stopping bugs on the Aura HD yet--but to be fair I've only been using it for a couple of weeks. I do like the font/margin/line spacing customization options the Kobo offers--much better than the KPW--including the option to add your own fonts. I do agree that the Kobo wastes space with the top and bottom margins, but the Kindle wastes space by not letting you set narrower side margins. I like the bigger screen on the Kobo, I like the lighter weight smaller overall size of the PW. If I had to choose just one device right now, I really don't know which I'd choose.
