I noticed that the Kindle PW has that technology, whereby you buy the e-book and possibly pay a little extra(?)in order to be able to "listen" to the book when you are too busy to actually read. Then resume actually reading and pick up where you left off from "listening" as the technology allows for bookmarking.
If the Kobo Glo would offer that, then my decision is done. I love Kobo and want to stay a customer.
I hope somebody can help me  |
Hi LoveMyBooks,
"Whispersyncing" is not what you describe. Whispersync synchronises your reading progress throughout the devices you use to read, like your e-reader, you smartphone, your computer...
And yes, Kobo does offer that, though only for books that you buy from Kobo.
The listening to the book thing, or text-to-speech, is something the previous Kindles have. The PaperWhite actually does not have it:

Sorry
