Hi Richard,

Actually, you don't have to wade through all the info on the stream.  After you 
press the information key, you can press the 2 key to get to the part of the 
info you want to hear, such as battery status for example.

  Hi,

  As with everyone else, I am disappointed over how Springer have handled this 
latest set-back and seriously wonder if the BC now has a future!  There are two 
facets of the BC which, to my mind, are far superior to those of the Victor 
Reader Stream.

  Firstly, the BC is so, so much slicker in its use; for example, pressing key 
5 on the BC immediately tells you the information you want whereas with the VR 
Stream, you have to wade through the unwanted verbiage of the description of 
the key first.  There are many other examples of this slickness vs unweildiness 
in other areas, too.  As far as I can see, there is no way to customise the VR 
Stream to cut down on prompts, etc but, I apologise if I have missed this in 
the documentation somewhere!

  Secondly, the internal clock; the VR Stream simply doesn't have one!

  I know this is the BC list but I would appreciate it if someone could let me 
know of anywhere I can read up on the upcoming features in the Stream in the 
hopes that my above dislikes have been addressed.

  Thanks in anticipation.

  Regards

  Richard Bartholomew
