sirmaru,

Yes, all Bibles from me (osnova) include DVJ (with the exception of TTS-friendly KJV; however, there are 2 KJVs that do include DVJ). The NET Bible also has DVJ (the $4.99 one, not the $0.99 one).

I have bought Sony PRS-600 to see if I can make DVJ-based Bibles for it. It seems that using the touchscreen keyboard could be possible, but awkward and not fast enough. The non-touchscreen versions would not be able to use DVJ at all. So, at the end, I decided that readers without a dedicated keyboard would not benefit much from DVJ.

By the way, I am chagrined at how poor the search implementation for the Kindle on iPad is. It works differently from the actual Kindle and is way too slow. DVJ on iPad is not usable.

I did not hear back from Zondervan the first time. Maybe I'll send them another request. It seems that I am not worth their notice. But I am with you, DVJ would benefit NIV a lot. Actually, I have both NIV and NASB and would love to incorporate DVJ in them.
