Thanks very much, I did not realize tablets were tougher. Tablets are great, but there are reasons that I am hoping to find an ereader for this use case. (I edited my original question to reflect that, sorry for the confusion.)

It puts me in a quandary. I would love to have the tablet toughness. OTOH, I also place a high value on the long time between charges for ereader batteries. I also really value the non-sleep-interfering nature of ereaders, versus the tablets and their blue-green light emissions.
