Hi Robert and list:
If anyone had really thought the info document had to be kept quiet, they would not have allowed it to travel outside the company's network. As it happens, it was placed where the public could get it, so that's life. If you don't want to listen to it now, you are free to wait as long as you want. Exclusivity no longer exists. I'm not saying you or I have to like it, but we ignore reality to our peril. 

Cheers,
Dave

A personal comment. I think that it was pretty tacky of Rusty to release this info ahead of larry's Main Menu program. I still intend to listen to Main Menu as I don't believe that Rusty and others know as much about Bookport's new features as does larry. larry works very hard to do a good production when he is asked to do so. Rusty could have waited until later next week to "scoop Larry.

You can access them all and it's mostly pretty boring stuff, to tell the
truth. I listened to portions of about half of them and it wasn't all that 
exciting to me. You can get the whole index of files by going to the same
link, but just chop off the info37.mp3 part of the URL. It's primarily
recordings of the sessions and speeches from last year's APH annual
meetings. I'll be very curious to hear what Larry has to say next week,
since there's very possibly been some changes since last October, which is 
when that podcast was recorded.

Actually, the BookPort II is only a very small piece of that mp3 file; it
also covers an excellent review of Book Wizard Producer and the Icon Braille 
+ , which APH will be releasing in the near future.  One has to wonder if
that is info37, what other goodies are there as well; Jeff, please ask Larry if we may access them all and if so, which ones are concerned with new and 
exciting technologies.
