yes, in fact my device is not traveling until I sort this out (and the offers of covers for my Pocketbook is still very limited, as it is a new model).
From what I have read on larger e-ink devices (mine is 9.7''), aside from travel, even handling the device "improperly" (e.g. taking it from one corner - it is large, so the weight from the opposite corner may bend it) might break the screen - unless the guy I read about has been plain unlucky. This is really the paranoia that prompted my initial question: traveling aside, is tehre aything you should never do when reading?
By the way, when you move to large screens, e-ink readers are sexpensive in the US too (not quite as in Europe, but around $400 - this is the rumored price for te Pocketbook 903 and the Onyx Boox M90).
