With the low price of flash-mem and maturity of mp3, I'm
surprised that 'talking books' are not commonly available
 - cheaply; where you would just change flash-cards.

Syncronising the 'writing with the sound' would also be
good for language learning ?

Perhaps even minimal cartoon-like graphics for stories
for kiddies ?

Who knows about the Blackfin CPU from Analog devices ?

Thanks for any info,
