The series feature of the new Kindle firmware only works with eBooks downloaded from Amazon. It will not work with side loaded eBooks because Amazon keeps the database locked up tight.

I have compared my wife's Libra H2O to an Oasis 3 and, to me, the advantage is to the Libra H2O. My Forma simply adds an 8" screen though being 9 grams heavier than the Oasis 3 might be a deal killer for some.
You forgot to mention that the Forma is using a plastic backed screen so it's a lot more safe from the "I have no idea how the screen broke" issues.
