I think it's safe to say the Voyage design has been abandoned.

Unfortunately I think you're right. I seem to remember seeing an interview (on YouTube?) were the head Kindle designer seemed to be a bit put off by the fact that people didn't love the non-mechanical buttons on the Voyage. I think they thought that was going to be a huge hit, but it didn't work out that way. Some didn't want page turn buttons at all, but a lot of folks just wanted regular mechanical buttons. The Tolino Vision 2 has the "whatever-it-is-called" non-button home button and I think I would prefer just a regular mechanical button on that one as well. I note the Oases came out with mechanical buttons.
