I an see the spot in the Glo HD but not the H2O. Yes, it does look like pinhole.

Pretty sure this time both of them are pinholes and not due to camera lens. If you play the video full screen hd from 2:32 to 2:37, you can see him move the device and the pinholes stayed.
Sorry, I can't see it here. Maybe it is that I can't get the same resolution that the photo has. Do they mention it in the review or elsewhere? Those guys annoy me to much to want to listen to their reviews if I can help it.

You seem to be really concerned about the pinholes. I would suggest you stop being so, or go back to paper books. Why do I say this? Because the only thing you can do about them is to take the device back and try again. It is a manufacturing defect that all the brands recognise. And they have been doing better. When the Glo came out, there where LOTs of complaints. When the Aura HD came out, there were a lot of complaints but not as many. And fewer with the Aura. For the Aura H2O, there were hardly any and the same goes for the Glo HD. I'm sure there has been one report here of pinholes in a Glo HD, but I can't remember more. If they have been reported elsewhere, can you point them out?

My understanding is that Kindles had the same problem and has improved with time. And the Nooks was even worse than any of the other devices.
