I have found a new toy. Of course, Miranda hit the roof and after hitting the roof, started on me. Anyway... Here's the problem I'm going to run into. While reading Archie's, since my French vocabulary is so limited, I'm going to have to have my Electronic French dictionary at hand and type in each word that I don't understand.
So I found this. I could speak the words on the page and it would translate them instead of me having to type them in. You will notice that the downside is that it's $590. That's a pretty major downside.
Here's the other option. Apparently Vista has speech recognition software built in and it works for French. I would just need a microphone. I would have to read my comics in front of my desktop computer. My eeePC is running Windows XP. But a microphone is a bit cheaper though.
