I feel bad for everyone with a faulty oasis. If you love technology as much as I do, especially beautiful technology, it sucks waiting with baited breath for something beautiful only to not have it up to your standards. I had a two toned Voyage (which I kept) which I did not return but just got used to the colour shift and after a few weeks just got used to it. It totally ruined the whole technophilia experience for me!!
I agree with you to a point.
Yes, it should be perfect under normal operating conditions.
But, most of those pictures come from not normal conditions. And should be taken with a grain of salt.

Now just from what I have been reading, it seems to me if one is super light sensitive then perhaps a lighted Kindle is not a good fit.
Note: any of the lighted kindles would bug my husband because he sees all the cones. Me on the other hand only see them in the very extreme photos.

Oh and on extremes, a 5 qt kitchenaid can hold the ingredients for 9 pizza crusts. However, there is a good chance you will break the dough hook.
I read that one in another forum.

Oh and for me: I expect a gadget or device to work perfectly if I paid more than $20 for it.
