I know that I subvocalize when reading at least sometimes, and usually when I am beginning to read a text. I believe that what I think of as the point where I “get really into” a book means the point where I stop subvocalizing. (I can read 2-3000 WPM—huge variance depending on what kind of text it is, and it’s usually more pleasant not to push so hard and read slower.) I don’t know how to consciously stop subvocalizing, though; it just happens.
