Hi, Vicki, from another Central Ohio resident.
If money is truly no object, would you consider something even larger than the Daily or the Kindle 2? I love my Sony, but if I knew I was going to be reading large-print and there was a gadget large enough to show me more words on a page (that wasn't too heavy), I'd be tempted to lean that way.
There's the Kindle DX*, which has a larger screen. And there's a couple of IRex versions out there that are larger, but I've never seen them.
And I can't believe I'm actually bringing this up (I'm not an Apple fan), but there's also the iPad.
The Sony does have the advantage right now of being the only one of those that will allow you to read library books on it. Barnes & Noble's Nook will too - but so far as I know, the largest reader they have has the same 6" screen as the Kindle 2 or Sony Touch. But that is another option.
**Just read on another thread that the newest Kindle DX Graphite (the dark grey/black one) has the newest eInk screen, which has a 50% better contrast that the current eInk screens. So you get the 9.7 inch screen and even sharper contrast...
