Moral of the story is don't treat the Kindle like a £5.99 paperback. Accidents happen, it's not waterproof, but then neither is a book.
I'd like a version with two displays in a slim clamshell desigh so that it's actually like reading a book with left and right pages, I'd like more information on the screens.
The resolution is quite good too.Comment

Sorry, that sounded like one-upmanship, it wasn't supposed to be.
It just means that I can access the e-books where and when I need to.Comment

I go on holiday to 'do' things and go places, not just sit and read - I can do that at home.Comment
