called.  looking forward to this hope it might come over to android as
well one day.

But I must admit it's a real nice app. I have both a Victor Streem 2

both
serve a purpose.

Again, I'm not discussing this to get into an argument about the
virtues of

a Victor Reader Stream, if you don't have an iPhone then all well
and good,

but if you have an iPhone etc then would you really want to spend
$400 for
much of what you have already?

Certainly one of those "I'll do it from my iPhone" kind of guys
yes, for
me the Victor Reader Stream purchase would just be wasting a whole
heap of

money, another list member put forward this view quite some time
ago, long

before I had a chance to play with Voice Dream.

Now before others say I'm not seeing the full picture? Well I

am, I know there are others that don't have iPhones however the Victor

cheap item

at over $400.
