Blio Launches With Glitches

Yesterday’s launch of Blio, a new eReading software designed by inventor Ray Kurzweil and KNFB Reading Technology designed for a better reading experience that includes a text-to-speech feature, went off with some problems.

Publisher’s Weekly reports: “On the first day of its free downloads, even savvy tech users complained of difficulty installing the software. Others complained of wildly varying prices and a lack of for-pay titles to buy as well as a poor functioning text to speech feature that was much hyped in Blio’s many demos.
