Oberon covers: I've bought 2 Oberon *JOURNALS* (I think it's called the small size, as journals go) on eBay, used, so I paid less for them. Then I take out the hardback journal supplied with it, and use the pockets in the cover (intended to hold in the hardback journal) to hold my kindle. I've just switched my Voyage into one of those. That way I can take the Voyage out, and read it "naked", but have a gorgeous cover to protect it. The cover is oversized by 1-2" on all sides ... so I'm pretty sure it'll hold an Oasis .... but that oversized hard leather edge would protect the kindle from drops. On the Oberon web page, you can check the size of the journal covers, to see how much oversize I am talking about.
So, no, mine isn't tailored to the size of the kindle, but I didn't pay the same price either. And I love it! (them ... I have 2 Oberons) Plus, I can re-use the cover on subsequent kindles.
