Nice to see you here. Yes, the headphone jack can be used to connect to
virtually anything. I have one of those dummy cassette thingies that you can
insert into a car stereo cassette player and it even works perfectly using
that. You'll love your BP.
One thing--the stereo channels are reversed on the BP so that when listening
to MP3 or other full stereo files, left is right and vice-versa. You should
be able to have a short cable made up for you by any competent electronics
service shop that will correct this problem. Get a stereo mini jack on one
end of the cable and a standard stereo mini plug on the other; then, plug
this cable into the BP and connect your headphones or speakers to the cable.

Hi list,
I just ordered a book port and downloaded the manual and am having fun
reading it. I hadn't ordered a BP previously because I've got a pac mate and
a Braille Lite Millennium 40, and thought I didn't need a BP; but with all
the podcasts and MP3 files to listen to, and no quick way to hear them,
decided to go for the BP. Am I correct in assuming the headphone jack can
also be used to connect to a stereo or small speaker?
APH is sure providing some fun holiday surprises this year! I purchased
other products recently and will soon be getting another one.
Mary
