I’ve never tried sending ebooks to the Kindle Oasis via USB…that’s an option? Never even tried connecting it to my laptop. The Kindle and Calibre talk to each other pretty easily that way?

I have a Paperwhite myself, but from what I've read the Oasis works just as well via USB and is equally compatible with Calibre. The experience is pretty much plug-n-play after the initial setup wizard.
