Hmm, a BP mental health issue!! Mine does this on very, very rare
occasions, but only when I'm using rechargeable batteries and can't get an
accurate gauge of their charge. Sometime back a member of the list made the
comment that dealing with memos requires considerably more energy than
reading, especially text reading, and that he or she gets better memo
results while using fresh Alkalines whose power is still high.

In my opinion, alkaline batteries are just fine. There is another issue I
think should be addressed. This concerns recording memos. I have one book
port in for repair which I sent in two months ago. So, since I am addicted
to this unit, I bought a second one. I am having problems playing memos
back from time to time. Sometimes when I try to play a memo, nothing
happens. Under this circumstance, I have to hit the 2+b right away. If I
do not do this, the bookport starts speaking gibberish. Then, I have to
remove a battery to get things to work properly. When I hit the reset,
memos start playing for a while like they are supposed to. I do not know
whether I should send it back for repair or just live with it. Everything
else works perfect. Plus, I do not want to wait two months or more to have
it repaired. Has anyone had this kind of problem, and if so, what did they
do about it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My operating system is
windows me.

Yes, it's supposed to be portable. I like the removeable rechargeable
battery idea. How about if for a little extra, aph gives you four
rechargeable double a or a a batteries and a battery charger for $5 extra.
