Hi Everyone,


I don't currently own a Book Port but I am planning on purchasing one in =
the next month or two. 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
