Does it look like sufficiently solid to withstand ten of thousands of page turns during the lifetime of the reader? I'm asking because it looked rather fragile on the pictures posted awhile ago here.
I didn't think it looked like a problem, however, this is a fair observation/concern. Back in the dark ages, I owned an ebookman. What did it in was the broken scroll wheel. This was a common enough occurence (similar to broken eink screens today) that there were hacks published for fixing the wheel yourself.
