Me too. I have a lot of recipes and cookbooks on my laptop but I do NOT take it into the kitchen while cooking. I'm not sure I'd take the waterproof one in there, but I probably would because the other day I was reading a really good book and was standing at the stove stirring while reading. I think a nice rugged waterproof design would up the ante for people with recipes/cookbooks on their reader or even for those of us who can't put the book down for five minutes stir dinner!!!
