Probably the marketers named it the Aura 2 because they want us to believe it's a descendent but I think it's not a stripped down Aura, but a stripped down Glo HD. Pretty much all their devices are Auras now so the name doesn't mean anything.

I have all 3 models of the Paperwhite and I use the PW2 and PW3 interchangeably and I really can't tell the difference. I realize others can but I can't and I doubt most people can. The Aura 2 and the Glo HD have the same screen density relationship as my Paperwhites so I really think most people who buy the Aura 2 are going to be happy with it. Personally I like my old Aura.
