Steve,
I'm not doubting the merits of the Stream just think more thought should've
been put into automating the folder creation setup..although based on your
response to Carol it would seem this may have been resolved with the latest
firmware update...
Thanks as ever,
Phil

Hi Phil,
The real advantage of the Stream though, is that you can do it with a memory
card reader. With Book Courier, you have to use the transfer tool. Having
said that, the Book Courier has advantages too, one being that you can put
Audible files in any folder, and as you say, you don't have these reserved
folders.
All the best
Steve

Chris,
Funnily enough I was thinking the same myself, seems like a right faff. I
was tempted to upgrade to a Stream from my Bookcourier but whilst I'm sure
the Stream has more to offer I do not like the all this talk of having to
make sure the right files are stored in the right folders etc. Anyway my
rant over too...think I'll wait quite a while longer to see what happens
with the Stream in future upgrades.
Cheers,
Phil

Hi all, just to say I do not like the idea of how this stream works. It
seems that books have to belong in certain folders etc. Sorry for the
ranting, but thought I'd comment. This will be my only post on the stream;
the rest I'll ignore. Think I'll use my BrailleNote mPower for my MP3 needs.
