Thanks Denise.  I will be looking into these. I guess I'm not as familiar
with the Apple products as I need to be.

Hope things are well with you. I follow the goings on via IL-Talk, and look
forward to getting back to Chicago after I'm done here at BLIND, Inc.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hello,
If you are thinking of the victor reader stream, you may also want to look
at the booksense xt from hims, which supports bluetooth (hims inc) or
bookport plus which supports wireless and internet radio from APH.
Otherwise, you may be talking about the ipod touch or even an iphone.
