I do not consider the Voyage thingies buttons and the bezels are too small to use them comfortable.
So what am I suppose to do when those like JSWolf sit there smugly in case they do discontinue it. You are going to sit there smugly because you got your way? Even though it doesn't affect you?
Absolutely astounded at this attitude towards others. Finding joy in others misery. And yes, for my hands and wrists it would be misery not having buttons.
I am trying to keep my basic with buttons going just in case. I am trying to be super careful with my Oasis just in case. I am hoping they continue to make either the Oasis or another ergonomically designed one like it for those of us that need it. It would never cross my mind to with others have their favorite readers taken away just to be spiteful.

There is other brands with buttons though. Pocketbook has a bunch with buttons still. Granted they aren't as big name of a brand.
Can I ask how a touch screen hurts your wrist and hands more? Tapping takes zero force. I understand the preference of buttons but I don't understand how the are easier on the wrist.
If the Oasis is going away this opens up the possibility of a new Kindle. Maybe the new one will have buttons or maybe they'll do a Voyage refresh with real buttons too. Who knows.
