Hello,

I was looking at the reviews on Kindle DX and I see a considerable number of users are unhappy of it being too fragile and that their device has totally stopped functioning after an accidental drop or putting a few books on it.

I currently have a PRS-505 (obtained a week ago) but I found it is too small for PDF files (I have hundreds of technical papers and books to read).

Considering that I stay in Asia and I buy from Ebay (no warranty will be available) I wanted to know whether there is a high risk of losing the device very easily?

Thanks,
Mac
