Hello:

There is a separate list for that product.  This is not it.  Please keep your 
emails in regard to the Book Port.

Thank you.

Hello,

Is there a procedure to install the SAPI 5 voices onto the Victor Stream?  If 
so, how is this done.

Regards
Louis Maher

                I have both units and never use the BP anymore, I could never 
get the batteries, no matter what type, disposable or rechargeable, to last 
more than four or five hours.  I listen primarily to audio so that may be a 
factor.  As far as the voices, if you don't like the two voices that come with 
the Stream, just install the SAPI 5 voices and it sounds exactly like the BP.  
I like that I can plug in my Victor when the batteries run low and charge it 
while I'm still listening.  The keypad is much more robust, this is my second 
BP and the rubber keys kept falling off the first one plus the battery cover 
kept falling off.

Being a total, I find the Victor more accessible to me but that's just my 
opinion.  The microphone is awesome and the recordings are the highest quality 
I've ever found in a digital recorder.  I also much prefer the SD card since 
the BP has a 4GB limit and I can use up to a 32GB SD card on the Victor, that's 
an awful lot of disk space and the transfer process is much faster to me.

I do like the BP for what it is but I'm a very happy Victor customer which is 
why I've been trying to sell my BP for the last couple months.
