I have both the 6 inch and 9.7 inch DX Kindle - and then i bought the Kobo H20. I believe the 9.7 Kindle DX still has the much superior read simply because it's got more real estate and displays text much closer to a book. Even the H20 is not large enough to comfortably read like a proper novel and i think the Aura one is just a small incremental for me (especially since i've got the DX). Now if the Aura one was 9.7 inch - wow - that'll be a game changer.

As nice as the Kindle DX is for a read - it's quite heavy and cumbersome and the keyboard is rarely used so it's wasted real estate there.

If i did not have the H20 i would definitely get the Aura One.
