There is a company called audibles. There is a monthly fee of $9.95 . You  
pick out books and you buy them of course and it reads the book. It's pretty 
 cool. My aid has all the twilight books on their. It's pretty cool to have 
the  book read to you. You can also do computer at the same time while 
listening. You  get points for how many you buy. Some books are several dollars 
up to $45. It  depends on the size of the book I think. I was looking at the 
Bible and it was  35 or 40 for the new and Old Testament.

I also use my Dragon dictate  program to read anything I type or copy from 
a website or whatever. I could also  use my Dragon at the same time on the 
computer while the audible is running. The  Sony has a model without touch 
but not in the larger size. I am not able to  manipulate anything in bed 
unless voice-activated.
 
Has anyone tried the Kindel, Sony or Barnes & Noble. They are all at  Best 
Buy . The Sony will take any book while the Kindle you have to use Amazon  
and Barnes & Noble you could only use their books. I don't know how  
expensive the books are. If you buy from Best Buy you can get a service policy  
and 
it covers if they are broken. It's the only kind I would get because my  
things are often dropped. The service plans are invaluable to me. I bought a  
Plantronics Voyager earpiece unit has been replaced three times in one  year.
 
They gave me the websites to look up books for each brand, but I have not  
done.
I do think you can download the books to your computer  also.
