russ,

Not sure if you know this one, but I like this IV calculator.

www.ivolatility.com

Plug in your ticker and then to the left of the green GO button go into the dropdown window and chose basic calculator. Inputting the option price gives IV. Note that on the free version the default quotes are delayed one day and you need to update that.

David
