Marshall,

How visually impaired are you?   If you can see the red spinner fairly =
well, the Accutuner might be the way to go...but there are numbers invo=
lved in setting it up.  Their size is about like   8.4   8.7  9.3

I know I'm not going out and buying and ETD right away, but I was wonde=
ring what size font the print is. ie. 10 12 etc.  Since I use the city =
bus system, the smaller ones woule be a better match for me ,but depend=
ing on the print.  I can see the red light on the spinner pretty well. =
Are they pretty much the same in price, tune lab, verituner etc.  I kno=
w the Acutuner III is in the neighborhood of 1700$
