The cover has a battery in it...great...make that a selling point of the cover, not the Kindle.

If they ever sell the Oasis, without cover, for $200 or so I will buy it.
This is a good point, as is the fact that if you choose to enjoy the improved ergonomics by using it coverless, you now have to keep track of the cover when it's not in use. It's just an added headache.
