You can say a thousand times that the Oasis is not ergonomic. That doesn't make it so. You want to think it is so, be my guest. You have a right to your opinion.
And I haven't said that my opinion about the ergonomics of the Oasis is a fact. It's an opinion and as such, cannot be proven. Just like yours.

Yeah, again, you are donwplaying facts as opinions, because you don't like them.
Now you are saying facts are opinions, so you can chicken out and don't have to proof your statements.
It is very much possible to proof wether something is ergonomic to the human body.
Metals don't change their properties, based on how much you like them.
We have invented scales to measure things.
I have proven to you, that the original Oasis was exceptionally lightweight and ergonomic. So get going. Proof to us, that the current Oasis still is.

Yes, I agree.
I cannot know for sure what is to come, but I base my opinion on pretty solid facts, that I have listed above. If you have any facts, that indicate something else, please share them with us.
We have collected these counter-arguments so far:
- But I like it!!!
- Page-turn buttons!!!
- The Oasis mated with another Oasis and magically evolved on its own!!!
- Every fact, that I don't like, is just an opinion!!!

Also on the Oasis 2, the cover was redesigned in the way that it fits on the reader. Further advances incorporated more lights and a slightly larger battery. In other words, these are tweaks. Just because something is redesigned does not necessarily denote failure of the earlier model. When you characterize these changes in the way that you have done so, then you are expressing opinions.
To say that the Oasis 2 is a failure (again, your opinion) because of what you term "massive design flaws" is - as stated - simply your opinion about the Oasis 2, opinions which you carry forth on your discussion of the Oasis 3.
You are absolutely welcome to have opinions, just as other individuals can have differing opinions.
FACT: The Oasis has a 'bump' on the back.
OPINION A: I find it difficult to hold. It's uncomfortable to hold.
OPINION B: I like the way I can hold it in my hands. It's very comfortable.

I am not quite sure how to reply to this. You are ignoring most of what I said and twist things into stuff, that I did not say.
Please quote what I actually said, and explain how you take exception to it.
