Hi John,
Thanks for that link. I'll just mention that this is a natural
function to put in for VoiceOver, and that you can sort of do this
right now, but the problem is bookmarking and navigating for short
bits. Currently, Stanza "almost" works with VoiceOver on the iPhone
and iPod Touch and can load up non-DRM ePub books from your computer.
However, I can't read continuously in Stanza. However, if you go to
O'Reilly's Bookworm site, upload an ePub book file, you can read it
through Safari (and correspondingly, you can read it on your iPhone or
iPod Touch through the Safari interface). This isn't a totally
working solution right now -- the ePub page blocks are large, and you
can't save your bookmarks within these pages. Also, I shouldn't have
to use an internet connection to read a book file that I could upload
directly to my iPod Touch! But it's clear there will be a workable
solution. This is exciting.
Cheers,
Esther

Hi listers,
Check out this exciting article from engadget. They start talking
first about a switch on the IPad, but then they mention voiceover.
The article states that voiceover will read the pages of Ebooks out
loud. Click here for this awesome news.
