Hi All,

I will be having an extended stay away from home, and I'm looking at the various players. The Milestone, Pocket, BookSense, Stream, and the Olympus DM5 voice recorder.

The unit will be mainly used for DAISY books. I'm currently reading the manual for the DM5, and not fully understanding the level of the voice prompts. Battery life will be important, and the player might be turned off for 3 or 4 days, and expected to have not drained power. Does this count out the BookSense?

I've listened to the reviews of the BookSense and Pocket, but could I live with the Pocket's rewind and navigation limitations?

Best wishes, Kelvin (M0AID)
