I have to agree with Don here. I usually just want the percentage, but
sometimes I want the other stats. I like the idea of have 8 with one
beep simply give me the file size and creation date.
I would also like to see a modification in the firmware that would tell
me how much free space I have on a compact flash card. I know you can
find this out when the device is connected to a Pc, but I'd like a way
to find out right from the Bookport.
Thanks.

Most of the time, people want one or the other, not both.

hi, i disagree about the 8 key.
leave it as is.
if i want all info, and i know i want all info, i'm just going to hit =
=3D
the 8=3D3D
for one beep. if i wanted the % in your suggestion, i would need to hit
=3D
8,=3D3D
then hold 8 for one beep to get the rest.
