I know that it does, but I sometimes switch mid sentence -- I still think that would be annoying and that I'd be less likely to switch back and forth.

Since I have Oases 2 and 3 I know that, for me, it is annoying and does make me less likely to switch back and forth than when I am reading on a Voyage. It's part of why I tend to read an Oasis on a stand.

I don't mind 6" devices, but do not prefer them.
I had an Oasis for a few months and it was uncomfortable for my hands. There was very little flexibility about how to hold it, I didn't like having to flip to change hands, I kept pressing buttons accidentally, and it was awkward to use swipe instead of page turn buttons. I assume Kobo devices would be similar. But I like my PocketBook Era. The buttons aren't in the way, weight distribution is uniform so I can shift between hands without flipping, use swipe/tap or page turn buttons. |

You mean Libra, Libra2, Libra Colour and Sage?
No, I had an Oasis 2 and have Libra, Libra2, and Sage. The Kobo are much easier. I had all 3 of those Kobos while I had the Oasis 2. I thought the only plus of the Oasis 2 over the PW3 I have was the larger screen and extra storage (32 G model). I wasn't interested in the built-in mobile-cell modem, as I don't use WIFi on the Kindles anyway, even before I got a Kobo original Auraa H2O. |
