I've never felt like I'm holding a book with any of my e-ink readers. I've always thought of them as reading gadgets. And that's perfectly fine with me, because I vastly prefer them to paper books. That's why I got them in the first place. Why should I even want to think of them as books is totally beyond me, but to each his/her own, I guess.

Well, all I can say to that is give it a little time. The ergonomics was the main reason I got my Oasis (I already had the Voyage and was quite satisfied with it) and the comfort of holding it was just as I had expected. I kept the Oasis only because of this comfort, I was a bit disappointed with its screen; my Voyage has somewhat better screen and better contrast. The Oasis, OTOH, feels so much better in my hand. So I decided to keep them both and switch between them, and that's exactly what I've been doing. I don't really prefer one to the other. They're both very good, in different ways.
