I'm wondering if what you're seeing is uncorrected astigmatism, which often comes with nearsightedness. Before I got a prescription that corrected for that, too, moving my head laterally or rotating it would cause text  to swim in exactly the way you describe (differently in each eye, too).

I suspect that's part of it. I've always had astigmatism and my glasses mostly do correct for it but I've been thinking it's time to get a new prescription. But I mis-phrased that a little -- I should have said the text HAD swum further away rather than that it was currently in the process of swimming away as I watched it.
But it's definitely at least partly the Voyage screen itself. I have, or have had, thirteen ereaders (I didn't realize it was that many until I listed and counted them just now

) and the Voyage is the only one with that particular problem.
