The number of breaks I counted in this thread was 19, not 14. 14 was the number of mysterious breaks I found in a quick count of other cybook threads.

Yes, I did include you in the 19 because you said that you don't think anything struck the screen, but that you have a theory that many breaks are caused by flexing. (Your message is copied below) If you don't think anything struck the screen isn't it just a bit mysterious?:

"My wifes Gen3 broke. It was in the cubbyhole (glove compartment for some of us) and we were doing a difficult drive in the desert. I don't think anything struck the screen to cause the break. It is just a theory but I think a lot of these breaks are caused by flexing."

By the way, I emailed support@bookeen over the weekend from a yahoo account, but no reply yet. If I don't hear from them tomorrow I will use another account to see if they respond. I really miss my cybook!
