Thank You Monica, what time will that be Central Time. I can never keep track

Hi, Bertha. I use a Book Port and absolutely love it. So it will probably
surprise you when I suggest that you invest in buying a Victor Stream instead.
I have two reasons for making this suggestion. The first is that the Book Port
is nearing the end of its product cycle, meaning that replacement parts and
memory cards will become harder to obtain in the years to come. Second, the
Stream can handle NLS books while Book Port can't. I love my Book Port and
would be sad without it. I bought mine used though, and logic tells me that if
a person can buy a product in new condition, it should be one that will be
current and the most versatile. If you'd like to talk to the people from
Humanware and other Stream owners, TekTalk is hosting a live demonstration of
the Stream with its new software on Monday night at 5 P.M. Pacific, 8 P.M.
Eastern. Just go to http://www.accessibleworld.org and click on the link for
the TekTalk conference room. This demonstration is free to everyone, and there
will be a question and answer period after the presentation. Hope this helps.
