Apparently the guy sat on his bag accidentally .... so how fragile are these readers.and what's the most skookum brand or model in your opinion.

Sitting on his bag is not a little bump. He probably pressed something else into that Kindle screen with over 100 lbs of pressure. I wouldn't call that fragile, but mishandling.
I'm sure an iPad will be fine if you treat it like a piece of electronics and not the same as a pbook. I don't like the iPad for many reasons, but fragility certainly isn't one of them.
