Rob Meredith >>> ring.richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 09/13/04 03:56PM >>> Greetings: I posted a message on this subject yesterday, but I would like to see if anyone has a clue. We are considering a pilot program at our state library. We would lend to patrons pre-loaded Bookports, just to test the possibilities that are available when it comes to digital books. We would like to load an example of each of the major file types that are supported by Bookport. We began by testing a Bookport on Friday. Our systems could not see the device. I brought the unit home and formatted the card three times. Finally, my home computer was able to see the device. MP3 files were transferred to the device using the Bookport transfer. =3D3D20 These files are playing at less than half the speed one might expect to hear them. For those of you who remember records (I know, not many) it's worse than playing a 33 and a third record at 16 and two thirds. (Note these are record speeds, which were measured in RPMs revolutions per minute) Has anyone ever seen this? Is there a solution? Richard A.
