Dear Diane,
I have the manual. Now, I am scanning a book with a scanner from a paperback,
but it is a new scanner much smaller than a flatbed. It's my book, so I can
rip pages out. I am saving the book, one page at a time in Wordpad. Can I
transfer this book later to my Book Courier and be able to read it?

Hi Mimi
When the batteries need replacing it tells you,
I have copied this from the Bookcourier manual for you, it is really easy to
use
Changing the Batteries
When you change the batteries, BookCourier saves your settings, including the
date and time and the battery type. After you insert the new batteries,
BookCourier ensures that your settings are the same as before and sets the
clock to the moment when you removed the previous set of batteries. So,
depending on the time lag between the removal of the old batteries and
insertion of the new ones, you may want to adjust the time settings.
Follow these instructions to replace the batteries:
1.. If necessary, disconnect BookCourier from your PC.
2.. Press the Shift key (middle of the bottom row) and the diamond key (the
first key in the bottom row) simultaneously. BookCourier will ask you to
confirm your intention to remove the batteries by pressing Shift-diamond again.
3.. Turn the unit over so that the keypad is facing down. The battery door
is located in the lower portion of the unit back. Using your thumb, press on
the door and pull it towards you, away from the unit. The batteries lie
side-by-side, parallel to the bottom edge of the unit.
4.. Remove the batteries by pulling the ribbon underneath the batteries.
The end of the ribbon should be in the middle of the lower edge of the battery
compartment.
5.. Insert the new batteries so that the positive end of the top battery
(the nub end) is on the right and the positive end of the bottom battery (the
nub end) is on the left. Make sure you insert the negative or flat end of each
battery first. This will reduce the wear and tear on the battery contacts.
Also, make sure that the ribbon is in place underneath the batteries so that
you can remove them easily in the future.
6.. Replace the battery door by sliding it back into position. You should
feel it lock into place. Now you can continue using BookCourier.
Important: For the most reliable performance, we recommend that you use
non-rechargeable alkaline batteries like the ones shipped with BookCourier. You
can also run BookCourier on rechargeable batteries such as Ni Cad and Lithium
Ion. However, there are a number of caveats. First, BookCourier cannot
accurately evaluate the level of rechargeable batteries. As a result, when you
request battery level information for rechargeable batteries, BookCourier will
say "Unknown." Second, depending on the type of rechargeable battery you use
and how often you recharge them, you may find that the battery life for a set
of rechargeable batteries is shorter than it is for regular AA alkaline
batteries. Finally, BookCourier can display very unpredictable behavior when
rechargeable batteries run low or die. If you do use rechargeable batteries,
you must ensure that the Battery Type setting in the Settings List is
I hope this helps, it is a great little product
Happy Easter to all
Regards
Diane
. I have one question: When the batteries go, does it sound fuzzy or
gradually diminish in volume until you cannot hear it anymore?
