Jon, I want a reader. Not popcorn!
You want a Reader. I get that. I really do. But then why the Oasis? It's akin to reading on a Reader in bright sunlight with a fading LG screen. Remember those? Bookerly fades into the background the more you have the light turned up. The screen then looks like a printout from a laser printer with a toner cartridge that's doesn't have enough toner to fully form the letters. The only thing the Oasais is good for is to bash your nose. The cover really helps since it adds some weight.

As for the bashed nose, the Oasis did it's job very well.

And speaking of popcorn, the Oasais is like cheesy butter popcorn without the cheese and butter. You want a Reader that not only gives you popcorn but also gives you the cheese and butter.
