The M-edge clip doesn't feel like it uses much pressure at all to keep it attached to the kindle. This is the first I've heard of this problem. @Theresa Very interesting info.

There was a class-action suit, http://news.digitaltrends.com/news-article/20406/class-action-suit-seeks-5-mln-for-cracked-kindles which eventually caused Amazon to drop its $200 "replacement" fee for the people who had encountered this problem. BEWARE...this is NOT uncommon damage. Perhaps in version 2.1, the Kindle case attachment method can be made more reliable, but until then, I think I will stick to the "ugly" leather or elastic or velcro versions, which don't crack the screen.
