Pam, where do I find this:

Hi Nancy:
Although there is a Speed Setting in the Settings menu on the Book Port itself, it is only for the files that use the Book Port Double Talk speech. If you want to change the speed of MP3 files, you have to do it in the software, prior to transferring. See the Options menu of Book Port Transfer, under 
the Audio Options tab.
We were not able to make this happen on the Book Port becuase of hardware, so we implemented it in the Transfer program, so you could at least have some 
option for changing the speed.

Albert,
Does that mean that I can increase the speed of reading on narrated books by 
hitting '0' and going to the 'voice' options on the bp?

 Keep in mind you can change the speed and other characteristics of the
playback for MP3's from the options page.

 Thanks Kitty. I just transferred my mp3 with a card reader to BP and they
work great.

 You do not, I say again not, need the transfer program to store mp3 files
on
the book port. The exception would be if you want to process the file i.e. 
 speed it up and a few other things I don't care about. This assumes mp3
files are constant bitrate files. And buy yourself a card reader otherwise 
 copying files to the card using the bookport might take all day.
