[Dtb-talk] digital talking book players?

[David Andrews]

Fred:

I do not have a machine at my current location, so can't test the 
navigation keys above the sleep key.  I do know that the keys 
adjacent to the play/stop key do also work, and since the Basic 
machine does not have the other keys, it seems safest to tell people 
to use the keys next to the play/stop button, as this will work on 
all machines.
