Donna - No, there's been no formal announcement. If you like to play detective, it has been stated on this list that there will be a Book Port capable of playing the new NLS digital Talking Books by the time those books start circulating and that's supposed to be around mid-2007, but we don't know for sure if this means a completely new device or simply new firmware and software--your guess is as good as ours on this score. ----- Original Message ----- From: "donna brown" <dandmbrown@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, November 17, 2006 5:26 AM Subject: [bookport] Re: Other file formats?
