I can't comment on the Aura as I have never used one outside of a shop. The Glo was an excellent device and I used one for over two years until the light stopped working. Other than that, it is still fine, just not as good as the newer devices. My wife is still using one with no problems.

I'm one of those who love it because of the flush screen - I hated the sight of dust particles in the little IR screen gap. For me, the capacitative screen works very well and I love the Aura. However, if I had to choose a new reader now, I'd buy a Glo HD (for the added DPI, it seems better for PDF viewing (I have some comic book PDF's that I'd like to be able to read on my e-reader, but the current resolution doesn't cut it)
