I like the computer put out by OQo.  It will run Mobile Speak, I believe.

| Unless someone can give me a great reason to upgrade, my Nokia N70  
| mobile phone does probably much of what the Parrot does plus more,  
| even allot of what the Bookport does in the form of playing MP3 and  
| other audio files, I'm told that Daisy software to play Daisy files  
| is or will be available for smart phones.
| 
| Now, there's another mobile PDA type thing reviewed at http:// 
| www.blindcooltech.com which I'm going to have a look at in a few  
| minutes.

| For many, I believe either the Book Port or Book Courier would work best

||I first want to say thanks for these reviews of this device.  Since
||this  device doesn't seem to be as accessible as first stated, does
||anybody have  any recommendations for a device?  I have to recommend
||equipment for  students.  Since the Parrot is out of production at the
||time, I need a  substitute device.  I would appreciate your
| suggestions.
||
|| Thanks!
