No, the VR Stream does not have the capability to take notes like the
BP.
 
If you have the bucks, look at the Icon/Braille Plus from Level Star.
The Braille Plus is sold by APH american Printing House for the Blind
but actually manufactured by Level Star.
 
You'll have to cough up $1395.00 for just the Icon/Braille Plus and
another couple of hundred dollars for the docking station for the Icon.
There will be a separate docking station for the Braille Plus.

Hi, All,
 
Is there a way to take notes on the Victor Reader Stream in a similar
manner as on the Book Port?  I have no doubt that the Victor
Readerstream has better audio functions, but if there is no notetaking
function, I certainly would not consider it a "better" product in any
stretch of the  imagination.
 
Sincerely,
 
Mark Blier

Hi Larry
Victor Stream. Much better product than the Book Port.

Is there a competitive product that has about the same   functionality?

Hi:

 

There is a new Beta version of the Book Port Transfer software
available.  This version corrects some problems with regard to User
profiles in the Application Data File Folder under Windows Vista and
also adds support for Dox files.

 

If you are already a Beta Tester, you can obtain the update by the
"Updates Software" in the Book Port Transfer software program or if you
have automatic updates turned on, you'll be notified, so just accept the
update.  If you are not a Beta tester and wish to test this, please
visit:

 

http://www.aph.org/beta

Please fill out the license agreement.  After that, click on Book Port
Transfer and you can download this latest beta.

 

For those of you who don't wish to take the risks, stay tuned and we
will announce when it is released to the non-Beta group.

 

Thank you.

 

Pamela Rader
