Seriously though! as soon as I start to nod off I put it on the bedside cabinet. The floor is tiled so if I kicked it off in the night it would surely break. |
I have dropped all of my readers onto the tile floor multiple times without a scratch. My only problem ever was the lighted cover for the Sony Touch Edition -- sometimes the battery case would open and the cover would be 5 feet away from the reader. The battery never fell out.
I don't recommend dropping your readers onto the tile floor just for fun, but I've found that in practice they are quite hardy. Mine are dropped at least 2-3x/week when I fall asleep.
