Chris, I don't believe the Apex will play NLS material. At least their website (Humanwares's) does not so indicate.

Subject: [Blindtlk] BARD: never mind about logging in, but I do have another question

Hi everyone,

Firstly, I figured out the thing about logging into BARD right after I posted the question to the list and sent it to you, Tison.  All I had to do was click on the link (enter with dots
2-6 on the BrailleNote) in the email and it worked.  After logging in, I put the main page in my favorites list.  From now on, when I go to it from my favorites, it will always come up with the login screen.  Now, I do have another BARD question.  
When I filled out my BARD application, I selected the Victor Reader Stream as my player, since I thought I would be using the Stream more for books, especially in school if I ever needed BARD for school.  However, I also want to read BARD books on my BrailleNote Apex, and don't want to leave that option closed to me.  I got an email from BARD today, which looked to be forwarded from HumanWare, saying that HumanWare had been notified of my wanting authorization for my Stream, Stratus, or Apex to play BARD books.  This requires that I fill out an online form on the HumanWare site, which requires me to give them my device's serial number.  But I want to play BARD books on both my BrailleNote and my Stream.  Is there a way I can tell it to authorize both, or will I have to use my Stream only for BARD books? Thanks, and sorry about jumping the gun and posting that message about logging in before I thought about that!

Chris

If a blind person has the proper training and opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical nuisance." -- Kenneth Jernigan (President of the National Federation of the Blind, 1968-1986.)
