Great idea!!!! It takes till forever to read a book this way, but I like the idea of using an old ‘medium’ in a new one. Very original to use technology this way.

Excellent project, had the same idea myself (was going to use The Kalevala) and then noticed you had already done it. One thing though… it doesn’t seem to be reading one sentence at a time, more like 13 words at a time which breaks the flow. It’d be great to be able to just read a sentence… if you e-mail me I may be able to help you set it up to work that way.
