I am also concerned about the added weight of the Oasis2. I know it can't compare to the Oasis1 in lightness (which is a key factor for me), but I'm wondering how the Oasis2 compares to the Voyage when reading in bed, holding it above you.

Any insights greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I can't imagine the Oasis being in any way an improvement in that scenario. The grip on the device is not nearly good enough to hold one handed agove your head. and you have much smaller edge to prop the device on opposite side.
