I have already explained that there is no difference between what I've observed of the battery in my device and those of others. Could you try to explain how you've concluded that I've described, at length, a malfunctioning device?

Regarding point #1, I am extrapolating based on my experience with charging other devices with similar frequency with a similar sized battery. A perfect analogy? No, the Oasis is unique among ereaders. I have yet to read any rebuttal of the logic underlying the analogy.

I don't anticipate any problems or signs of deterioration within a year, so the folks claiming that they haven't noticed any change in the year they've been using their Oasis is no evidence against what I'm concerned about: the longevity in years two and beyond.
On point 1, do the other devices operate exactly as the Oasis? If not then you are comparing oranges to Armadillos.
Are you referring to the device or the cover for charging?
Oh and those ads on the battery life are based on 30 minutes of reading a day.
So I don't think you have anything to worry about.
If you are still concerned contact Amazon and return it if it is still under warranty.
With your comments in the OP, I would recommend either a paperwhite or basic kindle.
