And the motherboard and screen board are affixed together too firmly which, IN MY OPINION, allow the substrate glass to receive far too much stress in these 'flex' situations. Yes, I have cracked open both a Cybook and an EB-100 and they're exactly the same when it comes to the hardware and hardware mounting points.

Are you saying that the case of the Gen3/NB-100 are too flimsy? The case for the Kindle is ok? I know the 505 case is good. Never had the chance to see a Kindle up close.
