Hi Pamela, I'm glad to know that the Braille + will soon read NLS books. I didn't like double talk when the B P first came out but I now do most of my reading with synthetic speech. The speech on the Stream is definitely not what I would want to listen to for hours at a time. Now, I just need to manage the price of the Braille +. Of course, at this time, B P is still filling all of my needs. I use all of it's features and it has me rather spoiled. Your patient attitude and help with problems both, large and small, is greatly appreciated by the members of this list. In the beginning, I asked several truly dumb questions and found you there with the answers. Make it a great one Sharon
