Before going out to diner, I put my Iliad on to charge and set the device on the top of my computer box. Got home form dinner and started looking at some web sites and as I usually do, put my big feet on the computer box. Only problem, I felt a sickening crunch as my foot hit the screen of my Iliad.

The poor thing has survived several drops including one from my car on to a gravel car park (withoput a cover on it) on to suffer such a disgraceful end to it's life. I would have to disagree with people who say the screen is fragile, it took a reasonable degree of force to break the screen.

Ah well time to contact Irex and start the path of getting it repaired and back to using the Sony for a few months.
