I must admit to being underwhelmed by this new Amazon offering. I own both a Voyage and an H2O, but I tend to use the Voyage more because of its lighter weight, slightly faster response time, the XRay feature and Whispersync with my Android Kindle app. However, I love that the H20 is waterproof and gives you multiple customization options on font size and weight, margins, line spacing, using headers or not (if tweaked). With the added size, it feels and looks more like I'm reading a book. Also, although my Voyage is jailbroken, it will probably be a long time for that to happen to the Oasis, so you'll be stuck with the Amazon screensavers or special offers. The H20 gives you the book cover as your screensaver automatically if you want.
I hope Kobo comes out with a lighter and thinner H2O. I'd be all in.
