I agree with JSWolf--the H2O would be a great replacement reader.

But another option if money is an issue is the Kobo Touch 2.0 (if it's available in your friend's area). It doesn't have a front light, but neither does the reader your friend is coming from. Personally, I think the Aura 2 with light is worth the extra $30(US), but if your friend is truly on a budget the Touch 2.0 would be a good reader. Although--no SD card slot or buttons.
