So I am back to my K4ntb. I love the button design on it. I can hold it in one hand, either hand, and never have to move my thumb. Just a slight press and it turns a page.
Here are my questions: How are the Voyage buttons to use vs. the K4nt? Can I keep my thumb resting on the button? And the real question, any chance we will be seeing a new Voyage any time in the future with real physical buttons again?
I hate making decisions...

Or, do i go buy the new Nook? Another choice, and real buttons. But if B&N goes out of business that's it for support!
I would definitely go with the Voyage. B&N has stopped supporting older devices even to register. I have both the Voyage and Oasis 2, I like buttons but the same amount of pressure works on my Voyage sensors. I can turn pages with one hand on both. I actually prefer my Voyage still. I hope they continue to make them. The $150 is a good deal. If they discontinue the Voyage I'll get a spare one. I like the size and shape, if they improved it , I would like to see water proofing and maybe real buttons. Although the sensors are fine for me too. They did take some getting used to, but now I just use the bottom part of my thumb to press the sensors on the Voyage and the buttons on the Oasis. Same amount of pressure without moving my thumb too much. It works for me.
