If you are refering to GloHD then it is a good choice.
Some people complaints about reflections on the shiny bezel when used under direct sunlight, but that is not a problem for me as rarely use the reader outdoors.
The screen is good with very good contrast and the frontlight has quite a neutral white tone. The only drawbacks are the ghosting when using the dictionaries or after wake-up, but this varies from unit to unit and can be solved by double tapping the screen (to force a full refresh), and some bugs on firmware that you can check on the bugs thread.
For the old Glo, I do not recommend it. The contrast is not so good which makes ghosting quite terrible, and the text to look washed-out, and the frontlight is too bluish for me. The good thing about this model is the external micro-sd card slot, but I never had problems with the 4GB of the GloHD (which can be expanded by replacing the internal microSD card).
There are several threads where you can check pros and cons of Kobo compared to Kindles.
