When you get technical material or periodicals from Bookshare, the Daisy
format provides enhanced navigation.  For regular novels, though, brf is
just as good.

Just a couple of questions.

1.  Is there a short but sweet list of key combinations along with
their
functions that one can keep on the BookPort?  I find myself having
trouble
remembering some of the functions since there are so many of them.
Actually, I remember the functions, but not the key combo needed to
execute
what you want.  I guess this is where a key learn mode would be nice I
guess, but would become unnecessary after the initial learning curve. 
This
is why I think just a quick and short list that could reside on the BP
would
probably be a better solution.

2.  Regarding BookShare, as you know, books are available in both BRF
and
Daisy formats.  As far as the BookPort is concerned, is there any
advantage
of choosing one format over the other?  For example, is navigation
better in
one format than the other?

Thanks for any responses.
