I'd heard that APH was not working with Springer on the BP 2, but that was only a rumor--nothing official from APH to confirm or deny it. Since the stated reason for the delay in the BP 2 is parts availability, I seriously doubt that the BookCourier is the basis for anything else. I'm guessing that at least some of the parts problems could arise from the spate of new devices, many of which may well use the same components. -----Original Message----- From: bookport_users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport_users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ed Thurston Sent: Saturday, November 10, 2007 8:30 PM To: bookport Subject: [bookport_users] is anyone out there? As the title suggests, is there anyone out there with some comments about the supposedly demise of the bookport II? The bookport list is humming quite busily and so far no criticism from the moderator. I've heard a rumor that Springer, I believe the company who not only made the Courier, but also did the hardware for Bookport one is working on another Currier version. could it be Bookport 2 since APH seems to be asleep at the switch! Lets hear some reaction and comments or have I wasted my time in joining this list! Ed,
