I don't know if you've been using a cover or not but it not, I would highly suggest purchasing and using one. I have covers on all my Kindles (and I have them all) and have never had a cracked screen (even on my Kindle 1). I toss them into backpacks and purses all the time and have never had damage (I've even sat on them accidentally a time or two).
Whichever reader you go for, get a good cover for it. :-)
