This is just text-to-speech software. While they are really available for both Palm and Windows Mobile, the current version sound robotic so no fun reading a book or email using them. Hopefully, LG's text-to-speech and I believe Nokia have one too for certain phones are better. Text files are much smaller than audio files.

Personally, I use them all the time on my Windows PC, but as stated not on my Mobile devices.

eBooks bought commercially have the 'select all' function disabled (to deter piracy and format shifting), so unless they come with their own reader or you strip them of protection (if that is legal is another matter), I don't think text-to-speech will work...
