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.

OK on the glasses.
Another Kindle to consider is the KSO WiFi. It's $25 cheaper ($114) than the 3G version. That's the Kindle I have and it's already paid for itself twice over from the exclusive offers I've taken advantage of. I really have no need for 3G, because WiFi is more than adequate for my needs.
Also; between now and the end of the year, Kindles will get the ability to check out library books just like the Nooks and Sonys and Kobos.
