            K-NFB Reading Technology, creator and developer of the Blio™ e-reading software, is pleased to announce the launch of Blio, the most advanced, flexible, interactive and engaging e-reading application available to consumers. 
           
           
            With its ability to reproduce color, layout and original fonts as in the print version of a book, Blio brings to life a large selection of titles that are not available with e-ink devices. Categories such as children’s books, cookbooks, and textbooks, finally have an e-reader that can deliver the reading experience that was intended by the author. The free application can be downloaded immediately to all Windows-based devices at the newly 
            designed Blio.com.  
           
            “Beginning today, readers of all ages will be able to enjoy a digital reading experience that truly harnesses the power of an e-reader,” said Ray Kurzweil, inventor of the flatbed scanner and character- and speech-recognition technologies, and founder of K-NFB Reading Technology. “By providing a full-color, flexible, and interactive experience, Blio redefines the boundaries of the e-book, opening up entirely new categories of multimedia content and, as a result, engaging new groups of readers of e-books.”

                        Available today at Blio.com, through partnership with Baker & Taylor, Blio offers a library of more than 1 million paid and free titles featuring full-color, interactive media content and today’s bestsellers. 
                       
                              Blio has a host of functions that make it smart, fun and easy to use.  
                             
                              Blio Feature Highlights: 
                              
                             Blio mimics a book’s printed format like no other e-reader, with files presented in XPS format, which allows digital books to stay true to their original print version. Blio also supports the more limited ePub-formatted books.  
                              
                             Blio features interactive rich-media, video, slide-show, and audio enhanced content from more than 100 top publishers, including Random House, Hachette Book Group, HarperCollins, Penguin Group, Macmillan and Simon & Schuster. 
                              
                             To facilitate reading and learning, Blio provides unique synchronized highlighting of the words being spoken.  
                              
                             Blio’s full-media functionality allows users to insert notes into digital pages, highlight sections and even look up references on websites, without leaving their e-book.
