Hi Jamie:I will atemp to describe the Book Courier: It is a device slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes, weighing about 8oz, with a jack for head phones, a jack to allow the BC to be plugged into a USB port on your computer, this permits books (from Bookshare) to be downloaded to the BC's memory card. The BC has a speech synthesizer that with use of a key pad much like a calculator (slightly expanded) you can listen (read) to the books.

I know what a notetaker is because my friend has one, but what is a book courier? I forgot that some people listen to books. My friend who introduced me to Bookshare is now both blind and deaf so she only reads on her notetaker.
