Glad to hear it charges up quite quickly.
"2 months" vs "3 days" is how *all* of the kindles are, so this is no different (not that you said it was). They pick some "per day reading rate" and then standardize the time measurements to that. But since people likely to spend $290+ on an ereader are most likely to be the avid readers ..... 30 minutes winds up being a ridiculous comparison time frame! I only get 3-4 days of "full weekend days" reading on my Voyage too. Which is to say ... I do laundry, I eat, I walk the dog, but there are a lot of hours of reading on those days. Sounds like the Oasis is not noticeably different -- though they claim an hour or two more (spread out over their silly 30-minutes a day rate).
