Hello. I almost bought the book courier but after speaking with a lady at Aph I 
decided to spend the extra money for the bookport. I guess a few more weeks 
won't hurt to wait. I just have to be patient.
I did get my 2 gig card today though. I'll have files ready for it when the 
bookport arrives.
