Very useful. I wish "Aria" English voice model was available on Android. I have PDFs...Epubs... just waiting to be listened to. Kudos to Creators.

Best choice of several epub reader plugin. If We can add comment with content, like Diggo, it will be prefect. ------------------------------------- 注 的字体太大了。 80*80，界面失去美感了。
