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?

Most ebook readers require the font to be set on a book by book basis.
Easiest on the older Sony 650 perhaps as there is button to push. (menus would be hard to navigate for visually impaired.
I read somewhere that one of the new readers has an option to set default font size for all books. Kobo perhaps?
