Hi All :)
Some time ago I d/l'ed a useful little tool(free) for converting text files into .wav files, which you can load onto the likes of an mp3 player, etc. I found this really helpful as I don't get much time to sit down at the pc and read through some of the lengthy posts, here on this forum. So all I need to do now is to cut and paste the text from an interesting topic into the program and just convert/load it into the mp3 player. Again I find it really helpful as I can review topics/concepts I find hard to internalize. I suppose the only downside is that the voices are a bit mechanical sounding but once you get used to the way they talk it's still worth doing. ;)
Here's the link.

Anyway...I hope it might be some help :)
Cheers,
