I think the combination of listening to the books plus the ability to follow along, highlight, underline and annotate would be a real plus.

Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Thanks!

There *is* text-to-speech software available for Linux devices. However, I don't know that any of these readers have a T-T-S port available.

Right now, playing MP3 audio-books is probably all you're going to be able to do.
