I strongly doubt the shuffle does that. From what I've been told, my book port, and my bookcourier for that matter since they're the same size, are a bit bigger then most MP3 players, of course they both do more then most other players also. I've actually never seen any other MP3 player, so I can't compare myself. I know some MP3 players only allow you to use built in memory, they don't allow you to use cards. I would think it makes much more sense to take the card approach. ----- Original Message ----- From: "LARRY SKUTCHAN" <lskutchan@xxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 5:42 AM Subject: [bookport] Re: The Book Port from a SightedPerson'sPerspective > I didn't realize the shuffle had text-to-speech and worked with digital > talking books, does note taking with a braille keyboard, records memos, > or supports the interchange of memory cards. > > > >>> coconut@xxxxxxx Thursday, July 07, 2005 9:04:56 PM >>> > Everyone who sees my BP thinks it is a television remote from about > 1980.
