If your going to try to compare font rendering between the H20 and Glo HD, be sure to set page refresh to 1. Not doing a full refresh *does* noticeably impact the crispness of font rendering on the H20, and I would expect the same on the Glo HD.

I have the Aura HD, and if the Glo HD will look the same as the Aura HD it is okay for me, if the Glo HD is visible better then the Aura HD, I would bother myself all the time, so the outcome of Davidfor is perfect to me.
I was forced to replace my Aura HD last year due to a cracked screen. The H20 itself was a noticeable improvement. Even though they have the same resolution, the contrast difference of the Carta screen was obvious.

I noticed that in the store displays, when all the Kobo readers are line up under bright store lights. The H20 always looked really bright, and made the others look like a dull grey by comparison. More than once I thought that was the glowlight, only to realize that the Kobo was actually off.
