I use the Stream and it is perfectly satisfactory for me. I did use Open Book to convert one of them to MP3 once to just see if I could do it and to see how much trouble it was. That worked just fine too, but I never did it again because it was timeconsuming and, like I said, the Samantha voice on the Stream does a good enough job for me.

I would be very interested to know how those of you who do not read braille, listen to your Bookshare books, particularly in a portable form so you don't have to remain tethered to your computer. I believe the general opinion that doing this with the Victor Stream voices is very unsatisfactory. I understand that converting to MP3 from Kurzweil is a possibility, but is anyone doing so in other ways. As this is somewhat OT, you can contact me off list at jillocon@xxxxxxxxxxxx Thank you so much for taking the time to reply.To unsubscribe from this list send a blank Email to bksvol-discuss-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxput the word 'unsubscribe' by itself in the subject line.
