 Hello;
I too will be listing to the main menu broadcast to see if there is 
something new.  With the exception of support for nls material, I certainly 
wouldn't trade my bookport in for the new model.  I have reservations about 
the built in rechargeable battery.  The current batteries are relatively 
cheap and easy to find.  Fortunately, I have never had problems with the 
battery holder.
As for the speaker, I used a small plug in amplified speaker which does the 
trick quite nicely.  Although convenient, the on off switch wasn't something 
I found personally issue.  I'm not familiar with the flash cards they will 
be using on the unit.  Maybe there will be some used two gig cards out 
there?
I guess for me the jury is very much out.
Richard
