[Nfb-krafters-korner] Plextalk pocket portable player

[Kendra Schaber]

Hi all, I would be lost without my Book Port Plus. I read books and take 
important notes with it. I have used it in my krafter's guild during 
meetings and all over the place from work all the way to leasure activities 
and everything inbetween. If anyone were to order a Book Port Plus, you have 
to order it from APH who is the only company who carries them.
