I became a member after 8 posts in three years. woohoo. No more "junior member", lol. Frankly i gave up photoreading, a while a go. I have been busy doing this and that, so yesterday i remembered this fine forum.
Now to the topic. I don't use the software to photoread (as you might have guessed already). I gave up photoreading because of this: My eyes hurt like hell. I have astegmatism, so i cant focus on anything without great effort. The rapid reading step is like pooring acid on my eyes. It got worse these last weeks when I could'nt follow the damn blackboard on uni, so I "illagely" purchased this software to do something about it. I'm a student dammit. Don't ask me how i got it, won't tell. My eyes are getting better now.
I'm not using it as a speed reading program, but I can see the benefit. I got to 800 wpm. Notice that the text in the software are extremly easy, not physics essay. Simply your eyes will get stronger, then you can roll them at superspeed if you want. One more thing, eat vitamines and minerals for the eye, or it will crack like an old guys spine
