Based on the failure modes seen so far it seems doubtful that a "clear vinyl sheet" is going to offer any protection for the iLiad's screen.

The screen needs to be protected from pressure from fingers while being carried or other objects while stored. A solid sheet of Lexan, fiber board, or for a high end case - aluminum would truly offer protection for the screen.

In addition, for colder climates, the Li-ion battery and e-Ink panel would appreciate a bit of insulation to keep them warm longer during transit. An extra $$$ option for a simple LCD temperature strip (the same material used in mood rings) on the inside of the case so one could check how cold its getting would be thoughtful.
