Are you getting your names confused?
The Kobo Aura is a discontinued model with a flat screen and bezel. The display is not as clear as the other Kobo models. I wouldn't touch it.
When you say the Glo, do you mean the old discontinued Glo, or the new Glo HD? The old Glo was a good ereader and can be found cheap on ebay. But it's a bit cheap feeling compared to the Glo HD. PM me if you need a good ebay seller.
Incidentally, to get epubs to display exactly how you want on the Kobos, you will need to install a patch and edit some config files. Not a big deal, but you will need to do some stuff.
On another note, as far as I know, I don't see why you couldn't side-load books onto the new Nook.
