So now we know: NLS refused APH permission to include the technology needed to play the new DTB modules. Given the long, long history of cooperation between NLS and APH, this is a real kick in <somewhere I'd better not mention on a family list> to APH and it shocks and appalls me. However, it does pretty well settle my personal future so far as reading devices are concerned: I'll get my two Book Ports repaired back to like-new status and then, wait until my local library can give me a DTB player along about 2010 or so. What a lousy state of affairs. -- Walt Smith - Clearwater, FL ka3agm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
