The more I pay attention to it the more amazed I am how both hands are getting used so frequently.
This is me too. I usually hold devices in my left hand, but occasionally I'll shift. With the Forma or Oasis, it breaks me out of my reading as I realize I'm trying to hold that bezel-less side. Then I have to stop and think about shifting back or flipping it over. (Both of them seem to favor being held in the right hand too -- I sometimes feel like I have to fight to get the screen right side up with buttons on the left. Whereas it seems to flip instantly with the slightest lean to the right.) With the Nook, I can shift without thinking about it at all.

Another reason I'll never get a cover for the Oasis or Forma is because they look like they're on backwards with the buttons on the left as I tend to hold it.

I want to say B&N usually has some sort of Black Friday deal on Nooks, but I'm not sure.
