My ideal Oasis would have the gold color back and edging with a white screen surround, twice as big a battery, and a more tactile, less conductive material for the body. It would also be a normal shape with buttons on both sides as I知 sure flipping the thing every two minutes as I do must drain the battery a lot!

But I figure this is as close as they池e going to get to what I知 looking for.

I was actually tempted by the Nook Glowlight Plus 3 when I handled it in store, even though it痴 big and clunky. There was something special about the screen and font rendering. But then I remembered all the side loading issues.

Plus I知 always using the different language dictionaries on my Kindle, and I sometimes get magazines and newspapers.

The only thing is, I have to send my current Oasis in by July 6, so I値l be without it for a couple of weeks.

I also really like my white new basic, if it just had the 300 dpi (and maybe the warm lighting) it would be perfect.
I get\ understand what you mean Pjama .
I would be interested to know how the battery would be on the new Oasis without the colored lights on. i know I'm probably the only one who would be.
