Sony Reader PRS-T1
Barnes & Nobel nook STR
Kobo Aura H2O

Not a broken screen in the lot. The 500 I sold. The 505 the screen controller failed and I managed to get Sony to give me credit towards the 650. The T1 I got when the battery of the 650 wasn't lasting long enough. The nook STR I got as a spare Reader because it was only about $20 on clearance from Roadi Shack. The Kobo Aura H2O I bought because I wanted the front light, the Carta screen, and the larger screen.
I have had the same experience, except I have a few Kindles thrown into that mix. Never had a cracked screen. All of my ereaders are in a case and they have all ended up in my work bag at one time or another.
I do not leave any electronics in a hot or freezing car ever.
