For those expecting to receive the new Oasis in the coming week, have you considered the possibility of jail breaking your device?

The original Oasis had no obvious serial port so a software jail break was the only option. The new model may be the same.

Amazon stated in the press release that a firmware update would be available on release day to add Audible. There is a remote possibility that the firmware installed on the device out of the box may be jail breakable while the update may not.

Those that desire a jail break may want to block this update until the status of it can be determined. It will probably be a short wait to find out one way or the other.
