Hi Jerry,
What do you have against progress and innovation? With this sort of thinking
we would have never replaced the horse and buggy. It seems to me that you are
too easily satisfied and are not thinking outside the box.

Tom and List,
My hope is that the Book Port evolves based upon its ability to read books,
its small size, and its reasonable cost.
Here is why I bought the Book Port
1. I can read a book, in all of the formats, with a device that fits into my
pocket. And I can have 100 more books on hand, in my other pocket. Doing this
with a CD player would require a larger CD player, and a stack of CDs.
2. The Book Port uses inexpensive off the shelf batteries, which I can
replace myself.
3. I had no further expectations for the Book Port; any more than I would
expect a hammer to do the job of a drill.
Sincerely,
Jerry Weinger

Any consideration of a new unit should include a wide, thick rubber edge
to protect the unit from accidental falls from tables and pockets etc.
