I think we do need to recognise that they are fragile devices, and I think a nice rigid case is a must. I have found the Paperwhite to be an amazingly durable device, but of course everyones experience is different. I have just acquired a Voyage which I couldn't resist when on sale with a reasonable saving. I find I am reading a lot of KU Books and have been using my Paperwhite 2. Whilst I would prefer the H2O for this, the PW2 is still an excellent reader and no hardship, and it is simply the easiest way to ensure that the authors concerned are paid. I'm seeing my reading future as increasingly Amazon at the moment, and the Voyage is a superb reader. If only Amazon give a little more control and choice over fonts it will be at least as good a reader as the H2O. Perhaps even better.
