I have a 90 year old relative who has macular degeneration. She is not able to read even large type books.

At the weekend she read quite easily using my Ipad with the font set at very large.

However, an iPad is too complex for her, she needs something easy to use.

I am wondering if the new Kindle Paperwhite or Kobo Glo with a backlight is going to be easier for her to read than conventional e-ink readers?

The point made above about large print menus is really important (and a factor I had not considered).

Can anyone recommend an e-ink reader with a menu with adjustable font size?
