That's purely your opinion, of course. I, for example, did not buy either the Voyage or the Oasis because they were the latest Kindles. I bought them for specific reasons: the Voyage for its excellent screen and page-press sensors, the Oasis for its page-turn buttons
and its design. Yes, my opinion is that the design of the Oasis is its greatest strength and I doubt I'm alone in this. I was willing to pay for it and have not regretted that I did.
That said, undoubtedly there are people out there who buy every latest Kindle regardless of the price, just because it's the latest. But I don't think they're the majority.
