While I do see a need for a Daisy player and other such applications, I also think an EPUB player, better speech synthesis, and a version of Linux that would run on my Mac as my feature requests. I'm fine with eSpeak, and if it can be used with MBROLA I'd be fine with that, too. I'd also like an accessible application to create music like in Quck Windows sequencer, but that can wait.
