The current model Nook Glowlight Plus and both generations of the Kobo Aura H2O are waterproof and handle ePub. I like Kobo's software better than the Nook, but my better half has been reaing on an older Glowlight for years without complaint. Try looking for either on eBay.

Whatever reader you buy you will likely need to move the books from your phone to your device via Calibre.
The nook Glowlight Plus does not show up as a removable drive when connected to the computer. It's a pain-in-the-ass. I have a nook STR and it's a POS. The UI is awful and the split memory is just stupid. The Glowlight is just as bad as the STR excpet for the light. The Glowlight Plus doesn't have divided memory, but it's just not all that good (IMHO). I don't know how the software is on the Glowlight Plus, but on the previous nooks, the font rendering was terrible.
