es, it works fine for me. Some zipped files may have problems, and you may get errors like "reading of HTML books not supported", but ignore those errors.
Have a great day, Alex

So Alex, you can unzip Sendero's zipped files on the BN? I was
under the
impression that you could not. Thanks. Kathy

No, it is pretty easy. On the BN: 1. Navigate to the file. 2. Hit the rename hotkey (backspace-r on a BT, unsure of QT). 3. Keep the current name, but add ".bks" (without the quotes) to the end of said name.4. Now unpack it like you would a book from Bookshare--either
use
the book reader or directory. 5. At the "password?" prompt, just hit enter. 6. If you are unpacking maps or pois, select your maps and pois folder as the destination when your BN says "folder for unpacked Bookshare book?".
On a PC: 1. Right-click the .zip file (hit the applications key or use ctrl-shift-F10). 2. Select (on XP anyway) "extract all". 3. The default options will put a folder with the same name as your zipped file in the same place as the zipped file, so hitting enter until it starts unzipping should do fine (I find it easier to just let it do that and move the resulting files later).
Hope this helps and did not confuse you.
Have a great day, Alex
