Hi, Bertha. I use a Book Port and absolutely love it. So it will
probably surprise you when I suggest that you invest in buying a Victor
Stream instead. I have two reasons for making this suggestion. The first
is that the Book Port is nearing the end of its product cycle, meaning
that replacement parts and memory cards will become harder to obtain in
the years to come. Second, the Stream can handle NLS books while Book
Port can't. I love my Book Port and would be sad without it. I bought
mine used though, and logic tells me that if a person can buy a product
in new condition, it should be one that will be current and the most
versatile. If you'd like to talk to the people from Humanware and other
Stream owners, TekTalk is hosting a live demonstration of the Stream
with its new software on Monday night at 5 P.M. Pacific, 8 P.M. Eastern.
Just go to http://www.accessibleworld.org and click on the link for the
TekTalk conference room. This demonstration is free to everyone, and
there will be a question and answer period after the presentation. Hope
this helps.

Hey ya'll,
I am part of the bookshare list, and I thought this would be relevant
to all who are using the BP and are starting to think twice about the
Victor Stream, so uh, do check this out!--
