CNN: Apple adds new iPods, $99 TV box

In case you haven't noticed yet; we spend a lot of our lives waiting: waiting in line at the cash register, waiting for others to show up, waiting to be called in at the doctor's office, dentist, etc. Usually, waiting is extremely boring, but with this TV box that could be history.

Yes, it could be, unless you can't see clearly because you are wearing prescription eyeglasses and are in need of new ones. Of course you would like to get the best bang for your buck, which is possible by ordering cheap, stylish, but still great quality eyeglasses online. If that is your intent, you may be in for a fight.

Most optometrists don't want to miss out on making money and will prevent you from ordering your glasses online from ZenniOptical, by refusing to give you the PD (Pupillary Distance); this is the distance between the pupils of the eyes, center to center, in millimeters. They know ZenniOptical needs that measurement ensuring proper eyeglass fitment.

I can understand optometrists want to sell their products, but it is the consumer's freedom of choice where and from whom to buy their eyeglasses. Opticians should not withhold the information needed to do so. It makes it pretty clear whose best interest they have at heart.

Their own!
