[stylist] I have a Stream, it is a dream

[Shelley J. Alongi]

One of the guys who works at disney has one and he loves it. Jeff my former 
boss at Cal State Fullerton has one. I'm the one behind the times, chuckles. 
I have to choose between train trips and tech and rent. Tech usually loses. 
But my time is coming. Hey it took me ten years after VCRs came out to get 
one and probably five years after DVD players came out to get one. I catch 
up eventually.

>I have one. It is a very nice package. Its feel in the hand is solid and
> feels high tech, yet not complex. It is set up button and control-wise and
> menu-wise in a overall logical layout. You can play just about any 
> possible
> format that is out there for the blind and/or for the general public. You
> can have the NLS digital books now, rather than waiting for one of their
> machines (and I bet this one is better than what the library has come up
> with.
>
> I also would say, I like the fact that it has built in external speakers
> that work well; has good tone and volume. And if you like to speed up your
> books, the speech stays very much the same, just faster (No chipmunk 
> sound).
> And the battery life is very good. Also, it is easy to jump around within 
> a
> book; much better than the old tape type of books we've had for so many
> years.
>
> I've not used it as a digital recorder, but I'm thinking that is another
> good deal.

> Amy and others-
> Yes, it is worth the price. .
