Hi All,
I am looking for a portable solution for reading. I know that the Book
Courier will play Daisy files as well as MP3 files. I also know that it
will read text files using synthetic speech. I've listened to the sample
on the web site and wonder how anyone gets used to it, but I guess you do!
I know a lot less about the bookworm. Am I right in thinking it has a
Braille display? And what are its capabilities?
If anyone has evaluated the two products, I be really interested to hear
your views.
Thanks for your help.
