You answered my question just fine. I was asking if I needed to download a book in brf if I had already downloaded it to my pc. I never thought of copying the file.

So I can read books by attaching a Braille display to my PC, or transfering a copy to my Pac Mate both without downloading twice from Bookshare. I would imagine you should be able to do the same. So when you get your Note Taker, I would guess that you can just copy the books you already have downloaded over to it, then download any new books directly to your Note Taker if you want. If your question was more of a legal nature, I don't think there's anything illegal about having a copy on your PC and one on a portable device like a Note Taker or a Pac Mate. If there is, well, then I guess I just admitted publicly to criminal activity! <grin> I guess I'll find out soon enough whether I'm in the dock. ----- Original Message ----- From: rita weyler To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, July 29, 2006 8:28 PM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] which choice Hello again Is there anyone who downloads books in braille on a notetaker and at other times uses their pc? I was just wondering if there is anyone who does that. Right now I am downloading the books on to my pc. I will soon be downloading them on to my notetaker when it comes back. Do I need to download the books again if I want them for my notetaker even if they are already on my pc? Thanks as always for your help as I learn to navigate this exciting new world. Bookshare is so cool. I never thought a day would come when I would be able to own lots of books in a format I could use. It was always a dream but one I didn't think would ever be realized.
