I tried one and it just kept flicking open slightly in a handbag and turning the device on. And it was floppy and I don't want to use a cover as a stand. Is the new cover easier to use as a book cover please? If you are reading on public transport, one handed, cover folded back, in a bit of a crowd, can you be confident the magnets will hold the two together?

My two main readers now are Aura One and New Oasis. New Oasis I carry with me in the bag, in Merlot leather cover and I use it during the day (for nonfiction reading with many highlights and dictionary use, where Aura One fails at all levels). Merlot leather cover holds Oasis very good, I didn't have any problem with magnets, it never slipped out of case. I also use the cover for making it stand on the table to read, the cover seems tilted when I use it but the Oasis seems straight and I read very comfortably. I just read on Tokyo metro train today, very enjoyable.
I do not have Voyage, only PWs and original Oasis (apart from Kobos).
When I hold Oasis in my left hand, I sometimes incidentally turn pages forward, but if I turn it 180 degrees (so that my left hand holds the bezel with buttons, where text turns 180 degrees as well), I have no problems at all and read comfortably. So when I hold Oasis in my left hand I just hold the button side in my left hand.
