I can deal with the delay.

For the recessed light, try the EcoSmart conversion kit that HD sells. It's a CREE rebrand.
It completely replaces the bezel and has a diffuser and uses different colors of LEDs behind it for great color rendering.
It also starts instantly compared to the screw in ones, so it must have a quick start capacitor or something. Best LED I've seen yet. In several states they are $25, still $40 here in WA, so I'm holding out past my first test one for a bit.
We'll be past CFLs in no time I hope.
