After reading on my iphone using IBooks, i agree with Scott, its definitely one of the best experience i ever have reading a book with fully control. However, i guess it is just some people prefference reading on the computer. I used to done that quite a lot few years ago, but now, i'm simply grow bore of it. i mean, i want something that i can read on the go, not something that i stuck on my chair and having my headphone , listening to voiceover or jaws or whatever screen reader read to me. Before discovering how accessible IBooks is, i use to listen to my daisy player. Now, after discovering IBooks, i don't think i can ever put down a book again.
A book a day is no longer a dream for me, but its a reality. :) On 24/10/2011, Teresa Cochran <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm not Mary, but I can put in my two cents.
