Yes, that does seem to be it. In my post, I did say that some people haven't had a problem, some have. But compared to other devices, I agree with you completely: the eInk is extremely fragile. And since it's used in an electronic book, you would think they would be engineered to be a bit more resistant to normal bumps, wear and tear.
