The iLiads screen is definately more fragile that a PDAs or cell phones. And it is more fragile than a laptops, since you position it differently. Or when have you last placed something on you laptop screen by accident?

It has a glass based layer inside, so caution is advised. But its not THAT easily broken. I assume most breakages were due to unlucky circumstances or mishandling. You tend to handle the iLiad like a book, since you can read on it like one.

So basically, its not a childs toy. If you drop it, it will break. If you trap the screen between your cellphone and your hand while carrying both around, you risk breaking the screen. But even my 9 year old niece can handle the iLiad properly, once told, what to take care of.
