My bad; none of the advertising I saw for the Courier (including vendors
such as ILA) mentioned the books while APH does mention them in its
advertising, so I made the incorrect presumption that they are not included
with the Courier.
My apologies for any inconvenience/confusion I may have caused.

The second point you stated is not correct. I own both units. Both installation CDs contain a directory of the same 1700 and some text files of older books. The only difference I have seen between the two collections is that the BookPort has them all in one big directory, while the Book Courier has them in subdirectories by author. On the BookPort CD the 1751 book files are in a directory called "books." On the Book Courier CD they are in a directory called "etexts" and within 643 author subdirectories. I've looked through many of the books in both sets and so far, I see the same set of books in both packages.
