This thing sounds AWFUL.

Lightweight, works great! If there was a way to change the voice's language/accent to fit the text highlighted, I think it'd be 5 stars! (For example, most webpages are set to Spanish because of my location, but the text is usually in a different language, so they're read in a Spanish accent. Being able to switch voices would be helpful! :) )
