Jim,
I know the target for the whole digital program is 2008. It seems painfully
slow to me too but, as you said, they have their reasons. Perhaps the biggest
one is that most of their clientele is not technically savvy and needs
something fool-proof. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they were to make
the downloads available before the memory cards and players are here and the BP
stands at the ready. Lou

Just putting in my 2 cents. I would love to download and read NLS books on my
Book Port. Since moving to the Book Port, I no longer like messing with tapes.
We can only hope the NLS makes some progress. It seems to be taking a long
time. I'm sure that there are budget constraints.

As I understand it, the NLS books will be downloadable as well as on a
special flash card so, I would imagine the downloadable books should work in
the BP. Lou
