    Is there brf support for the Stream, or if not, is there any plan to 
include that in future firmware updates? That would be the one thing that would 
make me want to jump on getting the device. I can translate brf to text in 
Kurzweil, but it's not always perfect.

  Yes, currently the documentation on the Stream is not fully flushed out. So, 
I would contact them directly to get the information on how to download a 
bookshare book to the Stream. RFB&D is still looking at the Stream to ok it for 
there books.

  I have a link in my internet explorer to Humanware Canada which makes and 
sells the stream, and a smarter person them myself might know how to put the 
link in the email.
  Too bad you're stuck with me.
  Anyway I went there and downloaded the user guide and skipped through it. I 
also went through the FAQs and I found nothing specific. I think though that 
you can probably download the *.bks file directly to the stream. Failing that 
you would want to unpack the book and download all the files to the stream. 
Since this is a daisy player it uses bookmarks and the like which are encoded 
in the various files in an unpacked bookshare book.
  I know the stream is supposed to read RFB and D files which would necessitate 
copying the whole CD of a book directly to the stream. 
  You transfer files either by using Windows Explorer: Or according to the user 
guide there is also transfer software that comes with the Stream. 
  I hope that when you guys get the stream you put reviews on this list.  I 
listened to the presentation on tec talk: there is a link to that on 
humanware's website, and I want one bad.  

  Sincerely Yours:
