Video Hands-On of Oasis

I just came across a YouTube "Hands-On" video of the new Oasis:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njKVcSGJ5Oc

The unit itself looks like it is in Portuguese??? language and the narrator may be speaking Portuguese or another language.... so you will have to just watch if you cannot understand it...

Some interesting tidbits from that video:

A new font... Amazon Ember.... at approx 2:32

The serial number of the demo unit starts with G0B0 GC09.... at approx 3:43

It was running Firmware OS 5.7.1.1 in the video... same device info screen as the serial number

The orientation of the Page-Turn buttons can be changed in the settings.... he toggles it back and forth.... at approx 1:37

At approx 3:30, the video shows separate battery meters for both the ereader and the case... interesting

At approx 4:47, he demonstrates the accelerometer by changing the ereader's orientation a few times

This was a demo unit, so it may not be identical to new units being shipped out

Watch it if you have a chance, and I am sure others here will spot some interesting new features or miscues

Hope this helps!
