Yes, definitely interested; a Text-to-Speech program is what I have been seeking to enable a severely dyslectic person to use for reading books.
A program like this would open a whole new, and economic way of reading for these people.

I have come across Text2Speech, an audible reader, but do not find it available for the pocket PC. At http://www.text2speech.com/ they do promote licensing of their synthesizer code for inclusion in software products. This route may preclude re-inventing the wheel.

Does anyone know of a product of this type already available for the PPC?
