The contrast in natural lighting is superior, IMO. It feels more like a book.

The Voyage is a nice device but having read on it for a week, I am more satisfied with the Glo HD especially when you take the cost into account.

It is sluggish with epubs though...totally agree with you there. Not a deal breaker but I hope it gets fixed with updates.
But to get that review he had to sideload the same font on all the devices. That is not a realistic review. The average reader won't sideload fonts so this is not a valid real-world comparison.
