Often, when an audio file starts or stops, there is a click, but I've not heard
any pop or click otherwise, and am also running the latest firmware. There is
an oddity also with this BookPort, and that is, sometimes
without any prompting, a double beep occurs without anyone ever having touched
the keyboard. I've listened and once in awhile, the unit will beep. Does the
unit, by defalt, beep every 5 minutes, 10 minutes
without any prompting or touching of the keys?

Hmm. Interesting. I'm not hearing it here at all and I'm also using the
latest firmware. Lou
