denise_islove | August 31, 2008
I wonder if that also works to translate different languages. If so, that's too dope!
MIL | August 31, 2008

BazaKanye | August 31, 2008
What happens if the blind person opens the book upside down?
Looks good anyway.
kawak | August 31, 2008

Collegin4theGoodLife | August 31, 2008
it would be funny if you replaced a blind mans fishing magazine with a hardcore porno.
robot voice-"i like your one eyed trouser trout"
he's like...that must be a new kind of fish...he's in a restaurant, "hey,waiter...can i taste your trouser trout?" lol
stickey | August 31, 2008
wow that is truly amazing
kyvadyva | August 31, 2008
Wow..some of my students could actually benefit from that kind of technology. While we work on improving their reading fluency, we could stay on-pace with the curriculum. So dope!!
adubbisfinallyfamous | August 31, 2008

Folamii | August 31, 2008

sooflyy85 | August 31, 2008
You kno the voice is prob all monotone... this would just make me go to sleep, like in school when you read books aloud
SoloPoloVision | August 31, 2008
That's an amazing invention for blind people but I think you're just being lazy Kanye!
mermaidintherudder | August 31, 2008
I love to read, but part of my injuries make it impossible to hold anything up by hand, or bend my neck to read. My docs recommended recorded books. I could work this tho'! Kewl!
mermaidintherudder | August 31, 2008
Which is my defense that this isn't only for the blind. It's easy to take for granted things we don't know about. Judgement of non-blind using this as lazy is hurtful and unfounded. Damn. I have spinal injuries. This would be so great to try for me. I'm not lazy, I'm disabled!!!
e_rich | August 31, 2008
Oh, that is just niggery. It's bad enough there are kids in high school that can barely read, now we give them a contraption where they don't need to read. Then let's watch them blame it on their parents.
e_rich | August 31, 2008
Keep it for the blind, please.
CBecky7 | August 31, 2008
This is an awesome idea for the blind.
NASTYFRESHKING | August 31, 2008

HE KANYE, TALK CEELO TO GO BARE BELLY IN THE NEXT VIDEO, BUT TELL HIM TO OIL IT UP! THAT WILL BE NASTY FUNNY!

SILLY MUDAFUCKA.
NASTYFRESHKING | August 31, 2008
DAMNIT, WITH THE TYPOS! MY EYES ARE FATIGUED LIKE NOONE CARES TO BELIEVE!

Spaceship614 | August 31, 2008

Lexjc420 | September 4, 2008
That's really innovative. I bet that in like ten years there will no longer be any impairment that we can't get past. I love it when people are willing to look outside the box and find a way for the physically or mentally impaired people to feel like a normal person. Very cool invention.
shadowman | September 4, 2008
Cool. Not much of a reader. This would be perfect for me as well.
sxystar22 | October 2, 2008
Good for ppl that are dsylexic. I love to read...
