Meaning it is best to have earbuds. -- "To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated, but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to, then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti -- Chela Robles AIM/Twitter/MySpace/E-Mail: cdrobles693@xxxxxxxxx Skype: jazzytrumpet WindowsLive Messenger: cdrobles693@xxxxxxxxxxx Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/chela.robles I volunteer for a non-profit organization called Bookshare, to find out more go to: http://www.bookshare.org Visit my Blog Piece from RFB&D and fill out the comment form and enjoy the blog and sound clips: http://www.rfbd.org/Blog/Access-and-Achievement/144/vobId__2525/ -- ----- Original Message ----- From: Christina To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2011 10:25 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: OT Bookport Plus? Thanks for the info about the voices, Chella. I'm a little confused by the volume comment...

I heard the demo it is not as loud or rather louder than Stream and uses Tom and Samantha which sound like the same voices the stream and book sense models use. -- "To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you forever.

I'm particularly interested to know how loud the built-in speaker is-if it's louder than the Stream-and how the voices sound that read text files. Thanks. Christina
