Probably price. The Glo HD is designed to be a Voyage killer. They want to keep the price down. Re: the flush bevel, yes I like it, but only so I could have text going from edge to edge without an elevated bevel blocking the text. With the Voyage, they added buttons to get round the potential problem of accidental page turns (if it is a problem). Personally, I would have liked the flush bevel for the reason I stated. Though that only works if you can reduce the margins to zero. But I think the Kobo can run Coolreader, so that would work.
