So you have to hold it, and swipe with the same hand (pointer finger or thumb) to go to the next page, but the place to do that is shifted on a bigger screen so I am afraid you can't reach the "swipe point" with that one hand..
Well, I guess it depends on how you read in bed... I lay on one side and have the reader propped up against anything that comes in handy, this ranges from the pillow of my partner to the cat and anything inbetween. I just swipe with the hand that is not under me. As it's propped up, I don't need to hold it at all...

Looking to the specs it has the same DPI is the Glo HD so it is only a bigger screen where a couple of lines more txt can be displayed.
The difference between Glo HD and Aura HD gives me 4 lines of txt more.. so this one.. 6 lines ?
Don't forget to add the extra words that can fit per line. That adds even more text to a single page.
