Speed Reading III helps improve reading speed

Custom Solutions of Maryland has released version 1.0.0 of Speed Reading III, which it says lets users try one method to increase reading speed and comprehension. It features ten built-in practice text sources as well as allows readers to select any other text file as the source. Reading speed can be adjusted from approximately 50 words per minute to 1500 words per minute using four radio buttons (very slow, slow, medium and high) and a slider. However, the company says that comprehension is not tested. "This utility displays full text very dimly with snapshots of normal black text moving across the page." It is available as freeware.
