I think it's just a really poor design. The Voyage cover also had a magnetic fastening, but at least it was a "clamshell" design, so it didn't fall off whenever you opened it. You need to have the cover physically clamped on in some way, I think, not just held by a weak magnet.
I suppose we are saying the same thing then, yes.

Oh, how I love the Voyage's cover. I love the way it can be used as a stand. I use it all the time. Val Kilmer's Batman would use this sleep cover for his e-reader. Compare that to the new Oasis's 'fold', presumably inspired by the Kobo Aura One. Ugh, what an ugly, useless fold.
