1. I don't take any chances, and when I'm using a sleeve-type case I always insert it screen first so that I'm holding it by the keyboard end to put it in and pull it out. The device seems sturdy enough, but I've seen enough broken screen pictures to not want to push my luck. Little bumps or a bit of pressure won't kill it -- squeezing it gently as you take it out of something is probably fine, but all those fingerprints, gross! -- but twisting it, on the other hand, is very dangerous.

2. Calibre, Calibre, Calibre.
