I don't disagree that it will be good when it comes out. BUt, if you use the right assistive technology Vista works just fine, THANK YOU! If you insist on using the shark then you will believe Vista is bad news.

Knowing APH and Larry as we all do, when BP2 is released, it won't be like Microsoft Vista. It will actually work! Novel idea, that!

there is no way to convert the old book port to play talkingbooks. and the book port is not a boat anchor it plays more file formats than anything out there. It is still a good deal for the money. aft is not the first kid on the block but when they show up with a product it is well thought out.

You no, I do understand that as blind individuals we have no lobby, absolutely no voice, and most of all no business complaining about anything. Of course I don't want to seam ungrateful for what I have, but not being able to play n l s books on the current bookport is a stone bummer. To many blind persons four hundred fifty dollars is a large chunk of change. As we all no lots of blind folks are on a fixed income and don't have much discretionary money to spend on book players. I wonder, could it be possible that the printing house could set up a program where you could send your bookport back for a conversion so it would play n l s books. Maybe this could say cost fifty bucks and be sent free matter. After all this is, "the American printing house for, and I do mean for, the blind.
