Thank you Rich, now I don't have to describe my BookPort's behavior. I, = too, have noticed my unit stopping at random times and for no apparent = reason. It happens, on average, a few times a week, and I also use it = every day. I have to press a key, wait for the double-beep, then press = another key in order to get it to resume normal operation. -----Original Message----- From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Richard Ring Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2004 8:05 AM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] Re: Book Port Stopping My experience has been somewhat different, yet the stopping issue remains the same. I have had my Bookport stop speaking, and quite often, when this happens, if I wait several minutes, it resumes normal operation. This doesn't happen often at all, and I use the device every day. I haven't found it to be a major inconvenience, but I have found it strange. There seems to be no way to reproduce the behavior, no set of specific steps that I can go through to make it happen, it just happens. -----Original Message----- From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dale Lieser Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2004 7:47 AM To: Book Port List Subject: [bookport] Book Port Stopping I, too, have had the BP stop suddenly. Occasionally I need to remove and reseat the batteries to get it going again, but usually just resetting the=3D20 unit does the trick. Dale
