hi Eugenia. am going to call them and see if they ship too europe, i gotta admit that the thing i don't like is their voices. I find the clear reader quite smart, it would mean that if i wanted too i could read the medical books in the living room with out having the computer standing there. At least if i understand it right. Also the clear reader have different voices and languages, which will become needed, have already have too read more than 1000 pages in swedish and norwegian. Guess i just gotta call them and hear for my self :) Problem is as always if it makes too many errors you have too prove read allot. I absolutely adore the book-scanner i have right now but turning a book over 1000 time is not practical.
