[nabs-l] VR stream pros and cons

[bookwormahb at earthlink.net]

Hi All,

I'm getting a VR stream.  I'd like to hear from users of it about your experiences and what it does.  What do you use it for?  I know you can download digital talking books; now I use the traditional cassettes.  What's the site to download books?  

What navigation capabilities does it have?  Can you search by words?  I know on the VR Wave you can go to bookmarks as well as chapters and pages.  

If you record stuff can you transfer it to your computer?  What functions does the MP3 player portion have?  Can you create playlists?  Can you jump to certain songs by name or singer like with regular mp3 players?  

What are some of the cons of it?
I will likely use it for recording notes such as phone numbers and lists.  I will also use the books feature to download books from RFB and digital talking books.

Thanks.
Ashley
