[Nfbmt] New victor Stream update

[Donna Harris]

Hello all,
Thank you for the  responses regarding the book port plus.  I have the
instructions to set up the wireless connection, but it has never worked.  I
always use my sim card  in the PC.
Thanks,
Donna

Donna,

The BookPort Plus came out with this feature a couple of years ago, maybe
three, but I agree with Jim Aldrich.  I could never get it to connect at my
Missoula house, and forgot about it.  The quickest way is to take out the SD
card and put it in my laptop.

And I have a lot of years left on it before I decide to buy another player,
and maybe by then I won't need to.

Dan
