I'd be pretty surprised if an Aura from Japan wouldn't work just fine in English and work with the Kobo store, although I don't actually know that. I'm confident enough that if I was in the market for one that wouldn't deter me.
I haven't had a 350 but between the Aura and the Glo it's kind of a hard choice. It depends on your priorities. The Aura has a much nicer feel, the flush bezel and it's smaller and lighter. All of those are attractive features to me.
The Glo is still pretty small and pretty light but not as small or light as the Aura. It has a conventional raised bezel. But it has a better screen. Still, the Aura has a decent screen. Just not quite as good as the Glo.
I find reading on either of them pleasant. If I had to decide on one it would be a hard choice but I'd probably pick the Aura. It's screen is good and I like everything else about it better.
The thing about the screens is that when I put the two side by side to compare the difference is pretty obvious. The Glo's screen is obviously better. When I'm reading on them I like either one about as much.
