[Nfbmt] Library

[d m gina]

Hi again,
this machine I speaking about is to read a print book.
The one on the stream is for book share and nls when it gets set up.
I understand they are still working on the set up.
This is with the new stream that is out.
Really nice.
What Ted does is plug a cord into the computer as well as the stream. 
This is the older one that isn't being supported any more.
So folks buy the new one.
The new one, you can down load books directly to it.
The machine goes on line, to do this.
Just way to cool.
