It doesn't ruin the eink screen at all, it has a protector (actually, I've heard there are barely ever and smudge marks). It does however, make it look a little blurry. If you're used to an eink screen, this may be a problem for you. Most are happy with it if they haven't spent time with a previous device though.

My suggestion is to turn it on and check out some of the preloaded books on it if it's not shrinkwrapped. Or, since it isn't available in your country, resell it after your vacation. Since they aren't available easily in your country, you'll probably still get a very good price for it (you can try selling it on here).

I think you'll like it though. Especially when you're travelling!!
