All at a very affordable price.

I own one of these. In fact, I have several, stacked up neatly, waiting to be recycled.

Reasons why I would rather not use these things
1. They leave residue on your fingers
2. They are expensive (over $40 a month)
3. They are out of date as soon as they are constructed
4. 90% of what they contain doesn't interest me
5. The UI is clumsy, requiring all kinds of hand gestures to navigate through a single article.
6. I have to wear headphones to drown out the ruffling sounds they make when other people use them.

Smart phones should adopt this technology:
http://www.rapidreader.com/index.html#whatisrr. I tried it about 10 years ago and found it very effective. Here's how the company describes their technology:

In essence, RapidReader displays the text of a document or web page like a movie. Each word is like a frame of film placed in the center of your field of vision. You have complete control over your reading speed between 100-950 words per minute. The unique comfort and naturalness of the reading experience is the result of RapidReader dynamically displaying the text that you're reading in the cadence and rhythms of human speech
