Hi I think I heard on the demo on blindcooltech.com that the plextalk is compattible with another daisy software package that irti sells. Eclipse or something like that I think. -----Original Message----- From: ptr1-users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ptr1-users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gary Schindler Sent: 15 January 2009 10:15 PM To: ptr1-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Confirming recording format of PLEXTALK Pocket Jamie, I looked at the plextor Europe site, and can confirm what you have said pertaining to the PRS and PRs Pro software's. in the states, IRTI, located in Grass Valley California is the distributor for the Plextalk products exclusively, so I guess I'll have to wait until Peter Proscia, who I kknow would bend over backwards to get it if he could, can get it and sell it. I am sure others like me in the states want the package too, so it may be a matter of time before there is enough demand for the PRS Pro software to become available. I am hopeing when enough people buy the pocket this will indeed happen. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie Cuthbertson" <jamie.cuthbertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ptr1-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 2:50 PM Subject: RE: Confirming recording format of PLEXTALK Pocket Gary, For the PRS which is included as part of the package you get with the PTR1 or PTR2, you certainly do need to connect the device to be able to install the software. However, and I may be wrong, I think that because the PRS Pro software is sold as a stand alone product, it does not have this restriction and would be able to be installed on any computer without having a PTR1 or PTR2. If you find a source in the States, it would be worth double checking this before purchasing. Note that there are two products i.e. PRS and PRS Pro. Another thing to bear in mind is that the need to have the PTR1 or PTR2 connected only applies during installation and uninstallation of the PRS software - you do not need it connected when you are using the software subsequently. Hope this helps.

I asked him to check with Plextor to see if they can sel a stand alone version of the software for we folks that don't have it because of never owning a PTR-1 or PTR-2. he told me you have to connect either the PTR-1 or the PTR-2 to the computer for the installer to install the software. thanks for telling me about Plextor Europe. I doubt they would sell me anything. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie Cuthbertson" <jamie.cuthbertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ptr1-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 7:18 AM Subject: RE: Confirming recording format of PLEXTALK Pocket Gary, I don't know whether you are in the States or on the Europe side of the Atlantic but I've been given the following information from Plextor Europe: PRS PRO software can be purchased from Plextor Europe. They can ship directly: when they receive an order, they will provide a download link and license keys. Differences (only minor) between PRS and PRS PRO can be found on the plextalk website: http://www.plextalk.com/in/prs-pro_top.html price for a single license = EUR 165 price for 5 user license = EUR 600 If you are on the other side of the Atlantic, you may have a similar arrangement through your local Plextor rep.

I had hoped to be able to edit files and export them to a computer at a later date. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie Cuthbertson" <jamie.cuthbertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <ptr1-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2009 2:42 PM Subject: Confirming recording format of PLEXTALK Pocket > Hi everyone, > > Just a quick confirmation that the PTP1 does record and create DAISY 2.02 > standard titles that are then compatible with the PRS software. > > Regards, > > Jamie > > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > To leave the list at any time, please write to > <ptr1-users-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> with unsubscribe ptr1-users in the > subject or the body.
