Otherwise I find the design rather pointless. They would be better putting the buttons on the bottom where both hands can easily reach them.
Considering they show it in both portrait and landscape, I couldn't imagine they wouldn't let you hold it with either hand. The Oasis already does and the Forma is clearly inspired by it (older devices notwithstanding).

Really Kobo should do a voyage-style buttons on both side device and destroy the paperwhite, but like Amazon, they pushing buttons as a luxury only option.
Yeah, if Kobo could take the Nook Glowlight 3 and add their firmware (and maybe waterproofing) that would be ideal for me.
