Is the Aura 2 more comfortable to hold than the Aura?

When I used to read my Aura naked, I found the corners were a little too sharp and dug into my palm. I notice the Aura 2 has much rounder corners. It's slightly larger than the Aura, but it looks like it'd be more comfortable in hand.
More comfortable, I don't know, different, yes

Aura 1 has a soft touch in the back whereas Aura 2 is a meshed plastic. Indeed the corners are not as sharp as Aura 1. I find Aura 2 a bit slippery sometimes though.

I'm adding pictures of the official Kobo cover. I like that it can be folded in the back and it holds with a magnet.

I also prefer to use my Kobo without a cover and recently I bought a felt sleeve for my Aura One from these nice people: http://stores.ebay.com.au/emmersongr...k-felt-sleeves

I heartily recommend them. They make the sleeves to order so you should be able to get one for your device. I took my KA1 travelling with me in this sleeve and it survived perfectly unscathed.
If anyone does get a sleeve from there, get then to make one big enough to hold the Reader with a case.

Would it be safe to say they should also get a sleeve that can hold a reader with a screen larger than 6"?

Given that depends. Is it an Aura, Aura Edition 2 or Aura One?

But it has to be bigger than the device to fit the device with a case.
