I actually thought the Kobo was quite rugged. It survives life in my backpack (unlike most of my cosmetics) and being used for several hours each day. I have the rubbery jacket around it and when in my bag lives in a 70cent homemade sleeve to protect the screen. What parts are breaking?
I am a musician and used to carrying and using extremely expensive and breakable instruments and electrical equipment, perhaps there are ways of packing things that I just do automatically?
