Are you still wanting to see and try before you buy? Have you asked Humanware about this? I do know someone in Bristol who may be able to help if you're really interested.

Mandy, I don't know if Humanware offer any kind of "try before you buy" or demo service, but if you give a general idea where you're located, maybe there's someone on list who is willing to let you see theirs.

Hi MandyI think you will be pleased with the VRS if you do. I find it invaluableand reliable. I use mine every day, it has great battery life, and really does what it says in the blurb. In fact, if I had to choose a couple of products to take with me to a desert island or somewhere equally remote, my VRS would be one of those items, I like it that much for reading books.

Thanks Jackie, after all the reviews etc. it seems like a pretty good buy. So when I've saved up the shekkles I'll go for that one.

Hi Mandy I didn't have Audible set up on the Pocket so couldn't really give adefinitive answer to that, but I don't see why it would be more difficulton it to any other device unless there is something I am not aware of.

I'm inclined to agree with you Jackie, I never use my pocket to record from, so for me that is a wasted component and they probably charge much more because of that facility but like you I have an Olympus, so thanks. You'llprobably see my message to Pele but is it easier to download from Audiblethan it was for the pocket?

Hi Mandy Yes I did, some time ago now. The Stream and the Pocket offer full DAISY navigation, ability to play Audible books, music and Internet radio. But I personally think the new generation VRS is quicker to connect to stations. The Pocket is a much superior recorder than the VRS. But I prefer the Stream every time. I like the menu voice, and can't abide those terrible music tones the Pocket has that you can never get rid of altogether. I guess it is very subjective Mandy, everyone will have an opinion on what is better or worse when comparing these things. For me, the VRS is the best of all the DAISY players, and if I wanted to do serious recording, I would do so on an Olympus.

Do you preferthe stream to the pocket? I'd like to know the differences because my pocket is looking a bit worse for wear and that is what I'd like to save for.

Hi Pele Just to say that Audible is great on the VRS, as is OverDrive content. The latest VRS is money so well spent, a fab device.

Hi Roger I have a Victor Reader Stream and really like it. I don't know about Audible, but I understand it works well. DAISY navigation is good and so is navigation for other books. Music is ok, although I believe you will get better sound from an MP3 player.You can also get internet radio and download podcasts, although Humanwareare still trying to sort out some bugs with this.
