I disagree. The Oasis should be considered, if only for the reason that it actually fits the specification of physical buttons. Best value for money from Amazon in my opinion is far and away the Paperwhite. The Oasis is a luxury product sold at a luxury product price. If you use an ereader a great deal and like the features of the Oasis then it may well be worth it to you. My reaction when the Oasis came out was disappointment. I was hoping for a real quantum leap including a liquavista colour display. As it turns out my hopes were not exactly realistic! I was using a Voyage at that stage which I really liked and saw nothing in the Oasis to justify upgrading. When my Voyage suffered an unfortunate accident (my fault) I did purchase the Oasis, and I do not regret it. I read a great deal, and don't begrudge the luxury price, but I would not say it is great value for money.
