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.
I don't think the new Nook GlowLight would be a good fit for spinixguy. He said that he reads a lot of PDFs, so I'm assuming these are coming from a different source than B&N. Since B&N removed the SD card slot and limits the memory for non B&N material to 0.5GB, spinixguy would probably run into the storage issue quickly. The older GlowLight that still had a SD card slot might be an option.

I also agree with Dr. Drib regarding the Aura HD--I love mine and don't find it ugly at all. I did find the case slippery to hold on to, but have since purchased an after-market sleep cover for it and it works perfectly. Even though it's bigger, it's the device I seem to grab most often when heading out the door.
