I changed batteries last night and now it says bookport 2.1 ready but when I press buttons it wont talk or play if I hold buttons down they beep but it wont speak or play a file Has anyone seen this? I tried to reset it a few times and left the batteries out all night, still wont work this morning. -----Original Message----- From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of peter.rand@xxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 8:35 AM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] Re: new unit proposal Hi Bruce, > I know progress is frowned on here, but I think that letting me plug the unit in where the facilities exist would be great - you'd then also be able to use a cigarette lighter adaptor. Like you, I would love to see the Book Port have all kinds of improvements. The particular issue here is whether an AC plug would actually represent progress, which has been discussed in some detail in the past. This is the relevant section from the Book Port FAQ: "*Why Doesn't the Book Port Have an AC Adapter?* Because the battery life is already excellent, and adding AC would add complexity and cost to the product for very little gain."
