I can't speak to the advantage of the rounded corners since I tend to hold my Aura One with one hand which is not touching either of the corners with my fingers under the back and my thumb swiping for page changes. Other people who have different sized hands are likely to differ with me.
My major objection to the Glowlight 3 is the same one that I have held against Nook devices for a long time. The partitioned storage which allocates a massive 950MB on the GL3 for sideloaded content compared to any other ereader I've used where all the storage is available for either purchased or sideloaded content is not, IMNSHO, acceptable.

Yeah I understand what you are saying. I was skeptical of the size at first. But the dang thing was a delight to hold.lol
