Thanks a lot for your response. I have decided, after reading the documentation on the book port and book courier, to get a book port. I just placed my order. I like the prospect of having a note taker built in. I can't wait to read a whole bunch of books in the car on the way to the beach. I look forward to being on this list and learning everything I can about the book port.

Yes. Absolutely. Both the Brf files and the Daisy formatted files can be
navigated by articles and by headings. However, the Daisy format offers
even more navigation, such as being able to move through subheadings.
Book Port also offers paragraph, sentence, word and character movements
in all files, except audio. In the case of audio files, you can move by
phrases or time.

Hope this helps. If you decide to purchase a Book Port, you'll find it
the best investment you can make.

I am interested in possibly getting a bookport, but I'm curious if
there is
a way to read periodicals from bookshare, skipping between articles and

sections?
