Read it to me...

I would love to see Vyrso read the text to me out loud.

My preferred reading method for seminary is to visually read on my MBP while listening to Logos read the audibly text aloud.  I seem to catch twice as much!  I can even highlight, underline and markup my book as I read.  I wonder if my highlighting and such will be synced to my Vyrso version of the book on my iPhone???  Hmm...

Please read it to me in Vyrso!

    Kevin - 

    Bob has said that highlighting and notes are coming soon to both the Logos and Vyrso apps. The "read it to me" feature would be nice.

    I finally used Vyrso on my daughter's iPad... WOW!  The iPad is great for reading and it is much easier to handle than a laptop.  Vyrso is a great idea!

    I seen the coming soon notes feature for both. I am on the edge of my seat, I wonder if it will include the inductive highlighting? That would be the icing on the cake. I will probably take off work when released that is how excited I am. Sync my highlight in my Bible with Logos.

    I still find it odd to use my iPad w/Logos at Church during small group. I somehow feel that the normal Bible is my default. I don't know if it is perception or just tradition that is my issue. Either way it is God's word so what ever shall motivate me to dig deeper.

    However, I can't wait to use keynote for children's visuals and scripture quizzes/games.

    Thomas, 

    Did you see that in the upcoming release of Lion, the new MacOS, that you will be able to mirror whatever you see in Keynote on your iPad to a projector or large monitor via AppleTV.

    Another feature request for Vyrso...

    I like to copy and paste some books into a speed reading application on my Mac.  I convert the book to text and run it through a utility to remove all parenthesis and such.  Then, I open the prepared file in my speed reading program that flashes short snippets line by line side by side so that my eyes work across the page.  Check out eBookLibrary.

    It seems that my LOGOS books already know where the parenthesis is and other 'eye distractions' are located within the text.  Therefore, Vyrso could automatically eliminate these from what displays in its speed reading pane.

    What do you think??
