I've got both a sony reader and just got a amazon kindle last week. I've dropped the sony a few times just on the rug and it held up fine, but I did drop it outside once onto brick (just tumbled out of my hand) screen side down. and it cracked the screen and stopped working.
I've just managed to drop my kindle screen side down onto the floor at work (not carpeted) twice. It slipped out of the cover and when trying to get it back into the cover it slipped again. the back came off and the pannel with the keyboard was a little off. I snapped everything back together and other than a crack just above the keyboard it seems fine. Everything is working fine.
While I know the floor is not as hard a the bricks. I think the kindle is pretty sturdy so far. (just can't believe I've only had it a week and already dropped it!)
