Hi, Pat. I store books just about everywhere! *smile* I have a bunch on a
compact flash card for my Braille Lite. I also have a copy of those same
books on my PC...you know, just in case. *smile* The ones I read get put
into a folder to be burned onto CD. I do it that way because I want to read
the books before I burn them onto CD to make sure the books are complete and
there aren't so many errors that the book is unreadable. That does happen
sometimes, but fortunately, not often. Take care.

Hi Rose and Everyone,
Yes, you are right, now we're discussing the issue of me storing them on
compact flash cards, or CD's. I want to put them on compact Flash cards,
and Vernon thinks I should burn them on CD's.
Oh well, I could also store some of them on a 5 GIG PCMCIA card. I have 2
of them. lol.
The only problem is now I can't find my PCMCIA card reader that I bought
last year.
Thanks.
Pat Ferguson
