Hi Steve,
I've found some typos in the W.E.B translation, they're probably in the
original but I wanted to get you to check. See Numbers 18:9, 18:11 (use of
the word your doesn't make sense, probably should be yours) and 19:13 "and
doesn't purifies himself" should be purify.
BTW thanks for including the binary search, shall check it out ASAP.
Joe

Subject: [betabookcourier] new bibles and firmware
There are new bibles available, 2 changes:
1. fixed the last sentence of Genesis 37:32 so it's spoken as "no" instead
of "number"
2. fixed the book names so the number is spoken before the name. I.E. it
will now say "first kings" and "second kings" rather than "kings 1" and
"kings 2".
There is new firmware, with addition of "binary search". Use the 1 key for
1 beep to move backwards and the 3 key for 1 beep to move forward. A few
words about this new function:
1. For those unfamiliar with the binary search concept... In simple terms,
forward moves half way from the current reading position and the end of the
file or last forward search position, whichever is closer. Backwards moves
halfway from the current reading position and previous backwards search
position or beginning of file whichever is closer. (Katie will be providing
a better description soon).
2. Due to a number of issues, including predictable results in poorly marked
up file, the search movement is based solely on file size and current
reading position. I know this is not the preferred method for the Bible fans
out there. This is the best we can do on short notice and short engineering
resources.
Thanks again
Steve
