The current bookport would only support a stopwatch, the bp is only a usb
client, so anything usb oriented will have to wait for the bookport 2.

Actually, I think there should be a few more settings. Settings such as a 
stopwatch, if the bookport can handle it, and maybe some more settings such 
as, maybe, being able to connect something such as a USB microphone, if 
people liked recording, or maybe even, (this is wayyyy in the future), a 
USB-connectable braille display. I think this would be neat because if 
people just wanted to read and stil wanted or had to listen to something 
else (people talking, etc etc), then they could mute speech and use braille,

with out the necesity of needing headphones or speakers.

just my oppinion,
Tyler
