Hi Barbara, If I didn't have to have it now, I would wait for the new model. If, at that time, you do not like the new model, you will probably be able to find a good used model at a great price since some people have the money and will want to upgrade to the new model. Of course, you take your chances with used equipment but you might end up saving a good deal of money that way. It has also been said that the old book port will not be support when all of the old parts for repair are gone. That would be a great price to wait and not pay full price for an old book port. I don't know what APH's return policy is, but the clock is ticking.

I wrote an e-mail a couple of days ago. Should I return my Book Port and get the newer model when it comes out? Is the newer model going to be more expensive? When NLS becomes digital, does anyone know whether they are going to give out their digital equipment or am I better off getting the newer Book Port model which will play NLS books, as well? I practically never read NLS books but I figure that if I am going to buy Book Port, I might as well get the newer, better model. What else will the newer model be able to do besides read NLS Books and retain the older features of the current model? It is nice to have Book Port right now, but I can wait for the newer model if I have to. If you were I, what would you do? I need some advice because, as you know, the machine is expensive and since some of you are into testing the new product, you might know more about it than I do.
