I read a lot of pdf files on my nst and I have to zoom a bit so the idea of the larger screen on the HD is nice, but from what I hear the flat screen and new options of the aura are really good too. Does anyone have both? If so can you tell me which one you like better.

Also, do any stores actually carry these? It would be great to hold both before I pull the trigger. Also, does kobo have a return policy? I could not find anything on their web store about returns.

Thanks in advance.
If you like nook simple touch: Why not check out the one with Light? Or the new Nook GlowLight?
I've got the 3 lighted ones: Paperwhite 2, GlowLight and Aura HD.
I'm using Aura HD the least, simply because of its ugly design. But that's just a matter of taste.
Regarding light or whiteness of the screen, there aren't huge differences. I slightly prefer GlowLight, Aura HD and Paperwhite 2 seem to be about the same for me re. light.
