If you still want a Nook and don't mind non-walterproof, there's the current Glowlight 3. Barnes and Noble sells refurbs for $90.

I have all three and like them for different reasons. My most used is the Kobo. But I sure wish it was waterproof.

If you don't mind slightly larger (6.8" screen), there's the Kobo Libra. It is waterproof and has buttons and color changing light. Walmart sells the white one for $170.
Big Deals now has a few Nook Glowlight offerings. The original Glowlight (manufacturer refurbished) for $40. The 6" Glowlight Plus (manufacturer refurbished) for $66 (as linked above, but these hadn't been around for a while). Glowlight 3 (open box with 60 day warranty) at $75. The 7.8" Glowlight Plus (open box, warranty not mentioned) for $140. And the 7.8" Glowlight Plus (brand new) for $180.

It's a little disconcerting to see new 7.8" Glowlight Pluses, on discount, sold by a company that's usually clearing out refurbished units.
