[Dtb-talk] Transferring Daisy books into InDaisy Reader

[Mike Freeman]

Dear Merlinda:

Thank you for your explanation of file transfers using iTunes.  I have transferred custom ringtones using iTunes so am familiar with the process.  I merely opined that in order for use of iPhone Daisy readers to become widespread, book transfers will have to be made as easy and transparent as they are using iBooks.
