These are reasons why I think waterproof e-readers are not necessary for me. Cellphones would probably be the only device I use that I would like to be waterproof and rugged. They are used constantly and in all environments.
I don't read in the bath or poolside or at the beach, but I appreciate waterproofing as I have a cat that loves to hover around when I read in bed and he has this, um, drool problem.

He drips like a leaky faucet. Down the back of my neck, in my ear, on my reader, it's water torture! With purring. But with my Kobo Aura ONE, no worries. Same would be true for KOA2 if I get one.
