What's your problem with reading? Because of changes in my eye sight, I use a
11" Android tablet with Kindle and change the font/size to read comfortably. I
also use magnifiers to read paper text (and a 4x lit headset to read labels!).
With 40' of books in my library, I am getting pissed at aging!
Maybe I can make suggestions.
