                        Hi all
                         
                        I read the emails on the list about portable MP3
players, and some of them have the facility of playing DAISY books.
                         
                        I know the NCBI is planning to launch this
format some time in the future but when is the question.
                         
                        What I want to know is where can you get any
DAISY books to read now as I have a DAISY CD player and want some
material to read on it.
                         
                        Regards
                         
                        Gus Dorrington
