Pam,
Just my opinion of course, but I will continue to use my unit, until it
breaks, so that it cannot be repaired, or when it becomes not worth it.
It is old technology not a criticism, just a fact, but old technology does
not mean that it needs to be discarded.
I still have an old Blazie note taker, and just like the book port, I will
continue to use it because it fits my needs.
Thanks for everything you guys have done at APH in reference to this unit.
Otto

We have plenty of parts to do the repairs, we just don't have parts to make
new ones. That's why it's being discontinued.

It is great, as far as it goes, but APH has said that some of the parts are
no longer available; so eventually, it won't be able to get fixed. Now,
mine is working fine, but in a couple of years?
also, we all want NLS books. I can accept no date. What I can't accept is
no new bookport.----- Original Message -----
