4gb cards are cool, but if you have lots of money to play with you can get a
12gb card for around $1000

Subject: [bookport] Interesting little tidbit

I've mentioned before on this list that I purchased a Book Courier a few 
months before learning about and obtaining a Book Port.  Well, today my Book

Courier got software and firmware updates, and the firmware upgrade included

the same changeover to a FAT 32 system that is incorporated in the Book Port

beta.  Four gig Type I CF cards are now fully supported.  The software 
update includes a "view online files" window which takes you to Springer 
Design's web site to two Bible translations which are fully formatted for 
book, chapter, and verse navigation.  Direct online transfer is required. 
This can only be accessed through the transfer software, but a card reader 
will let you transfer the files to your computer and subsequently to Book 
Port.  Both units navigate these text-based Bible files equally well, so you

can choose whichever machine suits your particular purpose.  I know a few of

you own both units as I do, so I wanted to mention this development.  I find

it interesting that both devices are making parallel changes, though this 
doesn't really surprise me.
