Hi Nancy,
Unfortunately, I couldn't go to that page without ordering another copy.
RegNow, part of Digital River, is the company that handles transactions for
Sound Taxi. I called RegNow customer support who told me that you may call
them to place an order. The number is
1-800-442-3172.
Regards,
Don...

Hello don,
This is a bit off topic, but I just went to the Sound Taxi web site, and I
got stuck in the ordering and privacy links. The credit card page says you must
review and agree to the policy, but doesn't provide a jaws friendly way that I
can find to get back to the place your order button.
Any suggestions. I will be thrilled if this solution works with the book port.
Thank you Nancy

Greetings,
I need to correct my message from yesterday, below. I said W M F rather than
W M A. Sound Taxi can convert any file that is playable with Windows Media
Player to M P 3, including Unabridged / Overdrive Books.
Regards,
Don...

Hi Andy,
As you've already read, BookPort does not play W M F files. However, they
can be converted to M P 3 files by a program called Sound Taxi (
http://www.soundtaxi.info/ ). Sound Taxi is a $15 program that can convert any
file that Windows Media Player can play to M P 3, regardless of protection.
You may also download a free trial to see if is suitable for use with your
screen reader.
Regards,
Don...

Hi, I have some books that are borrowed from the Unabridged library
system. It is managed with the OverDrive program and I can read them either
with the overdrive program or Windows Media. I guess that the extension is
WMA. Can the bookport except this? Do I need to get a player that will play
these types? If that is the case, can someone suggest a very good player? I
need it to be blind friendly of course. Also, I will need tons of room due to
I am a audible book buff because of the BookPort. I really love this bookport.
Andy.
