I have a couple questions about the Book Port. I = am a management accountant and I am studying to obtain the Certified = Management Accountant (CMA) designation. In my work and in my study, I = often read documents that require frequent line by line or word by word = review and so the responsiveness of the Book Port is of grate interest = to me. How responsive is the Book Port as compared to JAWS when reading = Word Documents, html, txt, and such? Do large files effect the = responsiveness much? I understand that it probably wouldn't be quite as = responsive as JAWS but I hate sluggish speech so I am hoping that it is = pretty responsive. Also, as I understand it, you have to have some sort = of key in order to read RFD&B AudioPlus books on the Book Port. How does = this work? Do you install the key, from a disk, using the PC? Do you = install the key once and forget it or do you have to install it on ea ch flash card that contains a RFD&B book? By the way, I have ben on this list for a couple days and I find it = quite informative even though I don't yet have a Book Port. I am = impressed with how involved APH seams to be with helping its beta = testers and regular users. I am also impressed with how all of the users = on this list seam to be so friendly and so eager to help each other. I = am looking forward to getting everyone's feedback. Thanks, Scott
