All the best

Hi Ray,
A month, or even a week, is a long time in this business. The BookCourier
is currently being beta tested with Daisy, and Grade 2 (.brf) files are now
supported.
George.

Colin. You can read a review of these two devices, (published July 2004),
at:
http://www.afb.org/afbpress/pub.asp?DocID=aw050407
To my knowledge the Bookport is still, at the moment, the only solid state
machine to support the DAISY format, although Springer who make the Book
Currier say that DAISY support will appear on their machine, although they
were saying that last summer. Rather strange because I believe the two
players are made by Springer.
They are essentially text document readers, (several formats), as well as
MP3 players. Both have a memo recording facility. The reviews are pretty
thorough and website addresses are given so you can go and find out the
latest on them. Our own Ian MacCrae looked at these two and found he
prefered the Book Currier. Both are sold in this country.
HTH.

Hi Everyone,
I know that a few of you have suggested this type of mass storage device
in the past. What I'm after is a revue on either of these, and an unbiased
opinion on which is the better of the two.
My reservations are that I will not be able to achieve the maximum
functionality out of the device that I desire. I would like to be able to
revue txt files during board meetings and make separate notes on the device
at the same time. Does anyone know if this is possible?
I've seen a list of file types the device supports, but there is no
mention of aug files, does this mean that aug is not supported?
Any impartial comments greatly appreciated.
Colin F
