The reason no Kobo was because the kobo was broken. What @eloi needs to understand is that any Reader that has a glass backed screen is just as likely to break in the same situation. The Form with the plastic backed screen won't break in the same situation.

So I see no reason not to suggest the Kobo Forma. Kindles (with glass screens) are just as likely to break the same way in the same situation. That means Kindles (with glass screens) can break when stressed in the bag as the Kobo was.
