The 350 is a great reader and there's no reason why you shouldn't enjoy it for several more years before having to get a new one. I use reading glasses all the time and you'll get used to them.
I already wear glasses. The problem is that my eyes (according to the Dr.) are just going through a period of change. I've had basically the same prescription for years but in the last year it's started to change rapidly. I'm assured that it will level off at some point and that it's not serious and by then I'll be in bifocals, but right now the challenge is to keep up without breaking the bank on new glasses. I have a fairly recent prescription as it is and it's already changed again. It's aggravating but I just have to wait it out.

Anyway, thanks all for your thoughts everyone. I did think about the nook, but due to an age old issue I had with BN customer service one time I will never buy anything from them again. I like the kindle and the reduced price on the 3g option is what has me seriously considering that. Plus, I get tons of GC's for amazon from various places so my books would be basically free. I guess I can order it and return it if I don't like it after a few days.
