Hi Katie,

Yes, I would certainly like Daisy text.  Some Daisy audio and text files are
produced by synthetic speech, which is sometimes horrible, and it would be
nice to be able to read the text with Book Courier.

Thanks.

All the best

 Hi everyone,
A new BookCourier release is now available for beta testers. The web page
provides details about the new features. Here is a quick list of the changes
since the last time:
  * Fast Forward and Rewind Changes.
    * Pause Preview
    * New user guides
    * Where am I now gives time elapsed for DAISY files
    * The current reading position problem Ibrahim reported is fixed.
Assuming that all goes well with the testing, we're planning to release this
version to the world during the week of January 24.

Thanks,
Katie

P.S. For those of you following Steve Nutt's travails, it turns out that the
files he was trying to load into BookCourier were DAISY 2.02 text files. As
this point we don't plan to support this file format and so we didn't make
any changes to the code to address the transfer errors. Please let us know
ifyou feel strongly about DAISY 2.02 text file support.
