[gui-talk] reading bookshare.org books on the MLS player through a flash drive

[Dean Martineau]

To complete these thoughts, there are a variety of ways to turn Bookshare
books into mp3 or Daisy files generated by other synthesizers which can be
read on the NLS player.  The easiest, and most expensive, involve either
Kurzweil 1000 or Open Book.  Those can produce Daisy files generated by
whatever voice is on your computer.  Other programs like Text Out Loud can
produce mp3 files, then there is a free program to turn them into Daisy
files.  We can discuss this further if it is pertinent.

That machine will not read a book from bookshare.  It does not have 
synthesized speech in it.
