Amazon will not unblacklist a blacklisted Kindle. So calling Amazon will do nothing useful.

My Libra freezes occasionally, is almost unusable to search the store via the device occasionally. The slide to change light intensity doesn't always work the way it should
We can tweak the firmware, but it does not make it any superior to the Kindle.
I have no idea why your Libra freezes. But if it was a major issue, it would have been reported a lot more here. As for the firmware, even with no patches, it's still better then that of the Kindle.

Have you really had an Oasis in your hands?
The built of the Oasis is close to what Apple could deliver. The screen quality is really good, front-light way ahead of the Libra, the contract is better, the device is so much faster and responsive than the Libra. Not to mention the difference of buttons quality.
Yes, I have held an Oasis 3. I didn't find it all that special.

And the Kindle devices handle highlighting and footnotes in a better way.
Sorry, but I'll have to disagree with that. Highlighting was improved in one of the 4.2x firmware versions and footnotes do work well.
