No, there is no provision for this. It's been on most people's lists of 
desired new features, though.

Hi,

I have just joined this list after obtaining a Book Port recently.  The 
device is proving to be fantastic but have a question.

Is it possible to set up a pronunciation dictionary for the Book Port's 
builtin synthesiser similar to that used by screen readers?  As I like to
readNewspapers of a financial nature,it would be great   to have 
abbreviations and company codes spoken correctly.

After having the unit only a short time, I am now wondering how I survived 
so long without it.


Thanks
Tom.
