I've been using my Oasis for over a week now. I love the screen size, the night time reading mode, and knowing I have enough space to store every book I own without any slowdown.

I've been trying to get used to the feel and weight of it though, and I'm finding it too heavy, awkward and sharp-edged. So much so that I am thinking about this most of the time when trying to lose myself in a book.

I went back to my Voyage after a week, and it feels so light, warm and smooth to touch.

The screen on the Oasis is beautiful, although there is a very noticeable difference in contrast between it and the Voyage, (Voyage has much better contrast, as many here have noted). I love having more words on screen, and the more 'book-like' appearance that gives. I just don't know if I want three years of obsessing about the weight and cold pointy bits.

So, I'm giving myself one last day with it before I decide whether to return it and just stick with my Voyage for the foreseeable.

Plus, battery life disappointing compared to excellence of the Voyage in this respect.
