    The copyright, drm, freaks are NOT going to like this device. How long before they want money for every "performance"? #intelreaderebooktexttospeech

    @89macrunner: Not everybody is "Blind", i.e. unable to see entirely. Even a totally blind person could figure out how to use this thing. They are blind, not stupid. #intelreaderebooktexttospeech

    One has to question how effectively the device could be used by the visually impaired. It looks like it has a text based menu system (though presumably it could read menu options aloud) and those controls don't look like they have braille on them. Plus there's the question of how well blind people can aim a camera at a page for effective text capture. Lets just hope they tested all those factors. #intelreaderebooktexttospeech
