The higher the ppi the less eyestrain I have found. 300ppi is perfect for me while anything less I get eye strain after awhile because my brain can make out the edges of a font and the rendering quite well. My Paperwhite v1 gives me migraines. I have to have a even background that's not blinding to read on.

I wish Kobo hadn't discontinued this model. It's perfect.

Yes, I’m defiantly more inclined toward the newer 300ppi eReader screens, as I keep hearing that 265ppi still has a certain degree of distortion around font curves. Clarity is pretty paramount for me.

I actually see that Amazon marketplace is still selling the Kobo Glo HD for $155. It’s sooooo much cheaper on Chapters, but it’s not available online anymore, only in store.
