Hello,
I for one agree with you, am in the same boat that you are, and feel the
same way.
When my unit stops working, I hope to look elsewhere for other options,
since the batteries will not be able to be bought off the shelf.

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
