While Amazon Kindle and Kobo have been suiting themselves in the game of oneupmanship for a while now, Barnes & Noble was kept in the dark - at least for some time. The e-reader manufacturer now comes back with a vengeance. 

"We're excited to introduce the best ever NOOK eReader to readers across the country, particularly those who have requested a great purpose-built reading device that is both durable and portable," said Fred Argir, Chief Digital Officer at Barnes & Noble on a Business Wire press release. 

The new Nook GlowLight Plus is a waterproof and dust-proof Nook for worry-free reading anywhere - including the bath and the beach.

The fine crafted and lightweight eReader offers comfortable and immersive reading experience in low light and bright sun thanks to the most advanced E Ink® display and a built-in ambient light. 

 "The first waterproof and dustproof NOOK is ready to take anywhere, offering an immersive reading experience that can be enjoyed in bed and bright sun given our most advanced display with built-in light. We invite customers to visit their local Barnes & Noble store to learn more about this beautifully designed, lightweight device that makes a perfect gift for themselves or anyone who loves to read," said Argir.

The company's slimmest yet, the new reader weighs 6.9 ounces. It's packed with a built-in Wi-Fi and a battery that sustain up to six weeks on a single charge. 

Starting Oct. 21, NOOK GlowLight Plus is available in Barnes & Noble stores nationwide in the United States and online at NOOK.com, ad-free, for just $129.99 with free lifetime in-store support.
