The last time I got it back from Booxtor the box had been mangled pretty noticeably -- I'm guessing by the USPS. Perhaps some sort of initial damage was done then, and it finally gave completely?

I don't recall seeing M96 posts re: broken screens ... is it more hardy (then again, it hasn't been out very long)?
I don't think the screen of the M92 is inherently any more fragile than the other non-frontlighted Pearl 9.7" readers; they all use the same E-Ink screen assemby. The M96 might be different (as it has a frontlight), I don't know.
