Hi,
Just because a vendor has some in inventory is no reason to purchase in my
opinion. Before retirement, I was in adaptive purchasing for my state and I
would never buy a legacy product for anyone.
I hope Steve can unload the rest of them, but I still see them as a back up
device.
(smile) I agree that some of us may consider staying on list to help people
who are having problems.
Judy

Hi Judy,
>I don't think we need a list for a dying product.
There are still people who need support for existing BookCouriers, and I
expect a lot of us are still happy to provide it if we can. You probably
spotted that Steve Nutt still has some to sell, so the device isn't toast
quite yet.
Have you considered unsubscribing?
Cheers, Lynn

The courier is toast. I keep mine as a backup device for the stream.
Move to the device of your choice. I don't think we need a list for a dying
product.
Regards,
Judy

Thanks Bud. I guess it is finally time for us all to move
on. Before we all scatter to the four winds, I wonder if it would be a good
idea to start a new maling list (I assume Spronger will close this one down
without warning). We clearly all have a great deal in common and will all
be on the lookout for a reploacement technology. I sanybody up for this?

I had sent a couple of email messages to Springer Design
asking about the timing of availability of the new BookCourier. Since I had
gotten no response to my emails, I decided to call them directly.
Surprise of surprises, somebody actually answered the phone. I very
politely asked about the plans for the release of the new BookCourier.
The response to my query was "the new Bookcourier has been discontinued." I
asked if anything had been put on the BookCourier list to that effect,
suspecting that I had just missed the announcement.
"No, that hasn't been done yet," was the reply. "Somebody will put a
message out as soon as we can. We are pretty busy around here working on
something that's actually making us some money." I have no objection to a
company working on things that make money. Unless the company is being
funded by a philanthropic source, they have to make money so they can pay
their employees and invest in the future of the company.
However, I do object to the fact that the company couldn't take the ten
minutes necessary to publicly tell those of us who have been waiting for the
new Currier that there wasn't going to be any. Now, we in waiting can go on
to buy a competitive product on the market. It doesn't seem to be asking
too much that the potential customers for the new BookCourier be notified by
the company that plans for the new Bookcourier have been scrapped.
