The waterproofing seems more aimed at ensuring it survives a dunking and will still work after being dried, not that you can use it while (say) scuba diving.

Audiobooks might be a more practical solution.
From the website (for the libra 2):

2 meters (6.5 feet)
Up to 1 hour of fresh water submersion
IPX8 certified
So having an option for disabling the touchscreen and only using the buttons seems like a nice solution.
