Scripture Goes iPod
Come February, the complete Bible in Today’s New International Version will be available for iPod users in both text and audio formats.
Zondervan, the world’s largest Bible publisher, has partnered with Talking Panda, the leading developer of IPod software, in this effort.
Apple stores, Christian bookstores and other booksellers will offer the TNIV Audio Bible for iPod at a suggested retail price of $49.99. It will come on a single DVD that allows users to install both audio and text files onto their iPods. Once installed, users can select scriptures by book, chapter and verse and both listen to the text and read it on the iPod screen.
“To be able to carry and access the entire text of the Bible in a device that fits in the palm of your hand will be a great convenience to allow time-staved people to read or listen to the Bible whenever it suits them,” according to Mark Hunt, Zondervan’s vice president and publisher of new media.
