Just about anything that makes it difficult for one to read. The original program was inspired by interaction with Jimmy Grimes (now deceased) who had tremendous physical problems reading paper books. His situation also inspired ReadAssist.org. They're really quite flexible.
btw, the reason Vernor Vinge's books are marked "not currently available" is that there was a shortlived experiment between Tor and Baen, where Tor books were to be released by Webscriptions. High mucketymucks at Tor's parent company pulled it back for further negotiations, but not until some people had already purchased it. Baen keeps it available for those who bought it, but not for new sales. (on the good side, there are new high mucketymucks, and negotiations are ongoing again. There may eventually be more Tor Webscriptions.)
