Worked very well while on the road last week.  I sure could use a mobile
power cord however.

  Yes, a DAISY book will play on the NLS pilot player.  Its books are
  also daisy books.  You will need to transfer the cards to your
  memory card, or to burn them to a CD.

  Greg,

  I also wasn't sure how to play the Daisy book, and opened the site
  below,
  but did not find a link to download TPB Reader.  I have a Victor
  Reader
  (provided by NLS for the DTB beta test program), will a Daisy book
  play on
  that machine?  Excuse my ignorance, but I am rather new to DTBs,
  and am
  trying to catch-up.

  Thanks,
  Mike Severin

  If you are on Windows then I would suggest TPB Reader you can
  download it from this link: http://w3.wmcnet.org/dtbmaker/books/
  TPBReader.zip it's about 12 megabytes.

  Mac users will need VictorSoft for Mac

  Linux can use idair.
