The Oasis has been discontinued which is a big bummer for me. I’ve had 3 or 4 kindles and the Oasis is the only one I thought was truly great.

Hm... I've just checked on amazon.de and it's still available in several versions.

I suspect once the stock is depleted, it will be delisted there as well.

it being discontinued was exactly why I was hoping that meant a v2 coming out, with a more modern usb port. I looked at picking up an oasis but everything else I own is usb-c more or less, and I don't want to deal with a microusb port.

I think the kindle keyboard (3rd generation) was great. physical buttons for page turning. internet. a keyboard! was way ahead of its time.
