When putting it in my bag, I make sure that the screen is right in front of a big plane object like a textbook, laptop or college block, so that any pressure exerted on the device is applied along the entire display and not just locally on a point.
eInk devices above 6" have only recently started to be made with plastic panels; the M92 has a very fine glass panel in front of it, so keep that in mind.
You can buy the screen and replace it yourself. Check out this post:

He claims the Kindle DX uses the same screen as the Onyx M92 - I guess you can write the guy and ask. $90 + shipping seems to be worth a shot. |
Thanks! I was already aware of that post. I might buy it and try to install it. I was holding out for the M96 but it seems it'll take a while still
