Hi All,

I've been listening again to Brian's review of the Book Sense. I'll hopefully be deciding which player to buy over the next week. I have a couple of initial questions, I hope someone will be able to answer!

Book Sense questions:

1, How are folk finding battery usage. Concerns were raised in the review about battery drain in the stand-by or off position.

2. Can the battery be replaced, and if so, does it have to be returned?

3. What is the latest version of the firmware, and have any improvements been made.

Milestone question:

1. Is there a Text to Speech engine in the latest version, and is it worth considering alongside the Book Sense, Pocket, and Stream.

Finally, I'm surprised none of the players allow text input for document searches. I would have thought a mobile phone style keying system could be adopted?

Regards, Kelvin
