Something sure is strange here. Perhaps the Pennsylvania library is putting MP3 files on CF cards and testing the Bookport as a new medium? If that is what they are doing, they are sure behind the times. You would think someone in the library who is in charge of that sort of thing would also update their Bookports' firmware. Sure sounds messed up to me. And calling it Beta testing? Sounds a bit like Rip Van Winkle to me.

Jeremiah 29:11 - 14 A   .
11 For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12 In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me in earnest, you will find me when you seek me. 14 I will be found by you," says the Lord.
