So now I'm wondering if this will probably be my ereader for the next five years (that's how long I had the Glo, only six months for the Kindle. It didn't suit me.) I should probably consider the One as well.
Is it worth the extra $50 in your thoughts?
My library doesn't use overdrive but the girl at chapters thought I could easily get a card in the big city if I stopped by even if I don't live there...

I bought an Aura One on Amazon last week. It had horrible green blotches and darker areas all over the screen. They sent me another one which had the same problem, but in fact there were less green spots.. At first I thought I could ignore all and keep the eReader... But a few hours later I decided that it wasn't worth it. Today I did the refund for the second time but this time I'm considering to buy the H2O. It's true, the screen is a little bit grayer and the resolution is lower, but that's not so bad compared to the awful lighting system of the One. And the flush bezel on the One is relatively good because you could accidentally tap the screen. Finally, I think that the 265 resolution is almost sharp and clear as the 300. Maybe if you compare the two screen you could notice the difference... However, these are just my expectations. I will let you know everything when they send me the h2o.
P. S. Sorry about my English, I'm Italian
Edit: I know some people have a perfect aura one, but that wasn't my case. If you want to try, maybe you could get a good one if you're lucky. But consider that there are also people who sent back 4 devices or more before getting the right one.
