Event:  VR Stream Hands On Training

Trainer:  Shane Christenson, Texas Email:  drummershane at runbox.com



Setting up the VR Stream isn't rocket science but it is much easier
when you
have a knowledgeable and patient technology trainer lead you step
by step
through the process. That is just what will happen next Tuesday
when Shane
provides all the information you need to insert the SD card, attach
cables,
set up folders and then download books to the player. 

All you need to bring to the meeting is your Stream, the SD card,
the USB
cable that accompanied the player, and a willingness to follow
directions.
Shane realizes our computer skills vary. His goal is simply to help
each of
us learn how to use this great little device independently so we
can enjoy
downloading books.
