Hello,
No doubt on this one!!!!!
I did write a post on just this subject a good while ago, but it was blown
off.
No problem, if the bop people don't do it, I think that the competition
will.

I would be for some sort of tone controlls, maybe even at least a five band
equalizer for. Real handy while playing mp3 files, and would help with fine
tuning doubletalk for those who want to.

is less bassy than the rest through my headphones. I quite like Perfect

future firmware? Of course, different people have different listening
preferences.

with some features and wonder about some others. Obviously the navigation in
a plain text book is just wonderful and even in an audio book is not bad.
The transferring of material from the book port manager to ones unit is even
strait forward enough for a computer neophyte like my self. I think I would
give book port a passing grade if I was ask to.

are called something like, repeating Robert and echo Eddy, you know the
ones. Only difference I see in them is ones digital repeat is a little
faster then the other. I suppose my question is just this, does anyone
really use either of these voices to read material?
