I looked at the Macmillan website when writing a short piece on
these books for the latest BCAB members' CD. It didn't mention abridgement
there either. It's usually notable in its absence.

I wrote about this on this list a month or so ago. I have not seen one
though so cannot review the machine. I think amazon were selling them for
just over ten pounds. I am almost certain they were abridged, which puts
me
off rather.

It's just occured to me that someone did a short review of this book
collection a year or two back on Access World.
Try ferreting around at:

Sorry, haven't time to track down the exact whereabouts of the article.

Hi,
Has any one on the list used the following?
Audiobooks on the move! This is a new, portable way to listen to audio
books
- just plug and play! Macmillan Digital Audio are delighted to introduce a
brand new format for audio book lovers everywhere. Word Play is an
incredibly light and portable pre-loaded player which means you can 'plug
and play' your favourite audiobooks anywhere in the world. The player runs
off a standard AAA battery so they are easily re-chargeable and they come
with a free set of headphones so you can start listening to your audio
books
straight away.
The James Herbert collection of books was almost twenty pounds but they
had most of his really well known ones on this one unit. If anyone has
used
one, a description would be good. I can see it being a good idea for
people
who do not like downloading books. I didn't think it was a bad price
either
considering how many books were there. I wondered how easy it would be
for
a blind person to navigate between books.
Regards
Mary
