Hi List!
I agree 1000%. I LOVE! my current bookport. I've
not had the best of luck with Victor products, &
I'll not bore you again with my views on those
loathsome non-userfriendly batteries! As for
competing products, I understand that the Springer
BookCourier is still in producion. I heard that
the bookcourier is being substantially upgraded as of the
start of 2008. It had most of the BP's functions
with the exception of the braille notes function.
So, if you want to avoid victor, check out
bookcourier.
Speakig of which, does anybody know if the
upgrades planned for bookcourier would be
possible for BP? Thanks!
Deb Mayne
