Thanks for the response, booklover6!

So I found a Kobo Glo for CA$80 which is about 1.5 years old (mint condition) and it comes with a cover. However, upon checking Kobo.com, the Aura is on sale at CA$99.98 (no case.)

Which one would you choose? I know the difference between both and I like the idea of dimmer back light to read in dark conditions (although how much I'd be doing that, I have no idea.)

So I guess I'm trying to think if at $20 more (possibly $50 more if I shell out for a case) if it's worth to get a new Aura instead.

Nope, scratch that. I think I'm settling for a used Glo since I don't want to pay additional taxes.
