You probably didn't drop it, but either smooshed, twisted, or bent it, breaking the screen. They're not very durable devices.
I'm not sure if even an Oberon case would have protected your K3 in whatever incident caused that to break. It might be that between two hard, heavy books would be the safest place in that bag to store a Kindle.
I keep mine in the outside pocket of a messenger bag, in either a Belkin or Oberon case. I'm not particularly gentle, but I do make sure not to bend, twist, or let anything hard & heavy hit it. You probably just put the bag down the wrong way, and *CRACK*.
I'm curious what you'll do to replace it. Another K3? or maybe an iPad or iPod Touch?
One of the drawbacks to the thinness of the Kindle is that it is necessarily a bit more fragile than thicker devices.
