Laridian Releases iPocketBible New Living Translation for iPod
Read and listen to the Bible on an iPod mobile digital device.
Cedar Rapids, IA (PRWEB via MobilityNewswire) August 11,
2005 -- Laridian, Inc., a leading publisher of Bible-related software for mobile
devices, today released iPocketBible™ New Living® Translation Edition for use
with iPod® mobile digital devices.
iPocketBible includes the complete
text and dramatized audio of the Holy Bible, New Living Translation for reading
and listening. iPocketBible utilizes the iPod "Notes" feature to present the
Bible text for reading. A verse and subject index allow the user to start at any
book in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation. A "Listen" option links them
directly to the audio so they can listen as they read.
"Most MP3 Bibles
give users audio only," said Craig Rairdin, president of Laridian. "iPocketBible
gives the iPod user the ability to read or listen or both read and listen at
once to the Bible text. It takes the Bible from being another "audio book" and
turns it into a devotional and study tool for your iPod.”
The New Living
Translation is an accurate yet easy-to-understand translation of the Bible.
Published in 1996 by Tyndale House Publishers, it is a thought-for-thought
translation from the original Greek and Hebrew manuscripts that is ideal for
devotional reading.
iPocketBible New Living Translation offers over 73
hours of professionally recorded MP3 audio. This dramatic, multi-voice edition
includes original music and sound effects. Narration is provided by Mike
Kellogg, national radio host of Moody Broadcasting’s Music Thru the
Night.
The iPocketBible New Living Translation Edition is available for
$49.99 (plus shipping charges of $5.50). The product ships on 5 MP3 CDs and can
be ordered from the Laridian Web site (www.laridian.com). The product requires an iPod device with a
dock connector (excludes iPod shuffle).
