Hi Folks,
Has anyone else had this with the latest fermware and transfer tool betas? =
=3D
I was reading a James Follett book last night and noticed that for some =
=3D
reason, under certain cercumstances, the BP misses off words. It seems to =
=3D
only happen when continually reading, sentense navigation reveels the text =
=3D
to be in tact.  Could one of you guys at APH take a look. I've copied a =
=3D
small section that should illustrate it.  Try to reproduce it for me if =
=3D
you can, just copy the passage to the clipboard, paste directly into a =
=3D
text file and send that short passage to a BP. Am interested in how it =
=3D
works out. For instance, do your units cut off the "you promised" and make =
=3D
it sound as if it is a typo?  To finnish, the file he sent me was in RTF =
=3D
format and was transfered using office XP. Some of his other files seem to =
=3D
exhibit this behaviour also using the new betas.

Passage follows:


    Telson avoided her gaze. `There's a planetary system three light-years =
=3D
from Alturn,' he began.

    `Telson! You promised!'

    `I said that I would consider it, Sharna.'

    `Three light-years. That's four years in suspended animation to get =
=3D
there that'll take us another three light-years further from Earth.'
