Looking for a reader
I am not only introducing myself as a newbie, I am going crazy with the overload of info on my research for my first reader. From what I find so far all units have changable fonts. I need a larger one as my wife has vision problems and now can only read the current large print books and even that is getting harder for her.
Anyway, considering price, utility, etc, I am considering the Libre. Any advice on that choice?

For your wife, I suggest getting one with a larger screen. So far, the best choice would be the Kindle DX. But on the horizon is the Sony PRS-900, the iRex DR800G, and the Plastic Logic Que all with larger then 6" screens.
