So, the Oasis 2 is waterproof. I never once read a $300 book in a swimming pool. Now I drop my Kindle occasionally. I don't have to go anywhere special, like a swimming pool or hot tub, to drop my Kindle. That's why I like the Paperwhite case from Kindle.

I think Kindle went off the deep end with the Oasis 2 and that's why they made a cover for the $270 ereader that doesn't protect the device but personalizes it.

The really need to send the developers from the "secret" location in California to the U.S. occasionally to get in touch with reality.

Mechanical buttons -- silly
Waterproof -- nice but not worth paying for.
Inverting text and background -- pointless
Bigger screen -- no longer fits in a pocket for me
