Happy to say that despite my worries the online seller delivered a perfect product. It is more expensive than buying on Amazon but as Amazon is not an option here and if I had someone ship it to me from overseas the price would have come to the same.

One happy person who has managed to read 3 books since Tuesday night despite all the work I have to do.

Have not given up on the Oasis though..... just will have to wait till October when I go the Germany.
Awesome, I hope you enjoy it!

I would give up on the Oasis.The design is awful. Go for a Voyage instead.

Actually, the Oasis is a nice reader. I do usually find myself using my Voyage more often than my Oasis, but that's mostly because it fits in my purse better.

That's because the Voyage is a better design for the same screen size.

The Voyage does have a better design for fitting in my particular purse, but the Oasis is more comfortable to hold. If I know that I'm going to be at home a lot, I will use the Oasis. If I have to be out and about a lot, I'll use the Voyage. Lately, I've been out and about a lot, so I've been using the Voyage.

After using the oasis for a while I sold my Voyage. It fits the purse just fine and much easier to use and read from. Mo more accidental page turns

Rumors abound that since its out of stock on amazon new e readers are coming out soon to replace the oasis

If that's true, I hope the wedge shape and the dual-battery go away.

Where is it out of stock? I just checked, and all of the Kindle models are still available to buy for me in the US.
