If any of you have had trouble getting the new Bookshare site to download books that will read on your Braillenote, here's a fix that worked for us:

Log in
Go to "My Account"
"preferences"
under "download preferences" choose "no"

This will allow you to download all the files necessary for the Braillenote.  The .bks2 files don't work.

Now all I have to do is remember that my son has 4 NLS accounts, two bookshare accounts and 2 RFB&D accounts.  Yikes!

If you haven't seen it yet, RFB&D is providing free audio accounts for students for a year: http://www.rfbd.org/promotions.htm
