After having used the Oasis 2 for a couple of months now I 100% agree with this assessment! The larger screen is great in general, the device is super fast (compared to all the other readers out there) but the package it comes in is no good. I thought I liked the shape at first but it's simply no good for many positions. And yeah, the battery life leaves something to be desired.
If there was a Voyage with a larger screen I'd jump onto that model in a heartbeat.
I would also like to see Amazon change the aspect ratio to a longer, more narrow screen (just look at the layout of any regular book out there) and *maybe* add yellow light for more comfortable reading at night.
