At what speed do you read?

Due to some discussion that briefly arose in this thread's second page I grew curious about how fast I could supposedly read.

http://www.readingsoft.com/ - Rated me at 295 wpm with 90% comprehension.

http://mindbluff.com/askread.htm - Rated me at 300-350 wpm.

Now, this is above average apparently, but seems much slower than my real reading speed with a book. I don't skim, I actually hear the words being read in my mind. Could there really be that much of a difference in reading speed between the computer and print? I'm curious what other people might get. - Colt
