The HD's screen is no more or less breakable than a Nook, Kindle, etc. eInk screens are currently made using a glass substrate layer which can break if mishandled. That said I've been using eInk devices since 2007 and never had a screen break.

Q1. How compatible is the device in terms of reading DRM-free ePub and PDFs?
|
ePub's work on it just fine. As for PDF it depends. Most PDF's are formatted as a letter or A4 sized page (or something else a lot larger than the 6'8" screen) this can mean needing to zoom in and pan/scroll to read the PDF. Not the most user friendly experience, but it does work I suppose.
