What would a sighted person think when looking at the Book Port? I've been told, for example, that my Braille Lite M20 looks small but bulky and utilitarian and rather old-fashioned; my Victor Reader Classic Plus sort of looks Fisher Price-ish. I've a hunch APH might be a little more conscious of visual appeal than some other companies. so I'm curious as to what impression a Book Port would leave with a sighted person.

By the way, I just ordered a 2GIG CF card for myself from memorysuppliers.com: $165 plus $5 shipping. I hope the price was reasonable. It's cheaper than ordering from tigerdirect.ca, and I know these people know how to ship to Canada.
