Hi Derry, She may be talking about the Reader from Sony which is a device which stores up to 160 books but this is a device with a screen from which you read the book, it doesn't read it aloud to you, however it has an option to zoom in on the text for users with some vision. Hope that helps.

I don't use the mouse as I am using JAWS, but if I by an accident hit against it, the mouse is working and has done things to my document without me realising. Is there any way I can disable this mouse pad? Thanks in advance.
