I read while I walk. When my wife and I canoe, we use a sealed clear baggie for the map to keep it dry and to be able to read it. Add one and one, and I tried my ebook reader (Sony) in a large ziplock (the sandwich size was too small) and walked my dog. I walked for two hours, read for two hours, the rain was very light, and I enjoyed the morning. Because there is little or no battery use, there is little or no heat generated. Thus no cooling problem with the reader in a baggie. The temperature today was a warm 18C.

So to paraphrase the musical
"I'm reading in the rain, just reading in the rain, what a glorious feeling..."
