The problem of course is that my replacement would not be the glo HD but I assume either the Aura (which I don't want) or the H2O. I'm also wary of the H2O as the PPI is considerably lower than the Glo HD. Would this be very noticeable when reading? Not sure I really want anything larger either but I don't think that would be a deal breaker.
I have seen glo hd models on eBay from Japan.... Is it worth going for one of these instead? Aggghhh why was it discontinued?

i'm not sure why you don't want to at least try the Aura unless you've had one before and didn't like it.
personally i love the Aura 6" therefore i'm rather biased, although for £79.99 argos are virtually giving it away IMHO, and it does have the advantage of being more or less the same size as your Glo HD and it also as the external Micro SD card slot which your Glo HD doesn't have, although you might not be bothered about that.
if it was me knowing argos as i do, i would try the Aura first (you might be pleasantly surprised) but if you don't like it take it back and they will exchange it for the H2O which is a nice device and also as the external Micro SD card slot and a bigger screen, but of course it will be a bit more heavier than the Aura and your Glo HD.
if you have a WHSmith near where you live you could go in there and see if they have a H2O on display if they do you could try it out before taking your Glo HD back to argos,
the decision of course is entirely up to you, good luck with it whatever you decide to do.
