For my usage pattern, the Oasis has hit the sweet spot - I get a reader that's really comfortable to hold, but still has a battery life that is long enough to exceed anything I will ever need.

Other people will clearly have different needs, but for me the Oasis hits the spot.
As a matter of interest, if you use the Oasis "naked", and then put it back into its cover, how long does the device take to recharge from its cover?

Thanks,
