It is normal for the device to start over at the sentence or line. I
think this is a firmware issue though, so there should be no need to
send it back.

I've had a problem with text skipping backward following almost all
button presses ever since I got my BP and I've just considered it as a
nuisance, but more or less normal. I figured that doing things like
reading the time or altering the rate interrupt speech and that the
device has to go back to some beginning point; that is, that it isn't
able to resume precisely at the point where it was interrupted. If
this
is incorrect, can someone at APH advise me so I can return the device
for a checkup?=20

Subject: [bookport] text files jumping back
I never know when the text file will jump back. I am using only
regular
batteries after my bookport died and had to be sent in and repaired.
I
know of no adverse effects of static electricity. Actually it has not
happened today and unlike another lis member it does not happen to a
greater degree or at all with MP3 files. However, I have noticed one
interesting thing. If I have to reset the bookport and go to say the
MP3
directory if I am listening to something it goes to the next file, not
the one I was specifically reading. I have taken special note of
this,
since it seems strange that it does not go to the exact file, but the
one
next to it. I will wait to send this till I read the rest of the
posts,
just in case. I don't think the jumping back has to do with how full
the
memory card is. When it stops it just stops and I have to hit reset
or
in rare cases take the battery out for just a second, just long enough
to
reset it but not so long that I have to reset date and time. Kurt=20
