I am curious as to why you wouldn't simply use the Icon/Braille Plus to search for and download Bookshare books? Am I missing something here? That has always worked fine for me. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Esak" <john@xxxxxxxxx>

Hi,Can you post the suggestion made by Woody regarding Bookshare so we all cansee it. Maybe he just replied to you and not to the list as well. ThanksCurrently, I don't know any quick ways to do Bookshare economically either.I run stuff through the gzip program first and then place the whole book folder in the directory on the Icon and it reads them fine. It would be nice to do it more quickly than using that procedure.

I suspect part of the problem may be that if I copy the .zip folder into the import folder and update the bookshelf, when the unit tries unpacking the book I am never prompted for a password. When I download the .zip and go to extract I am prompted for a password. Many Thanks RichardIf you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
