[gui-talk] book sense question

[Raul A. Gallegos]

yes the BookSense does have some unique features that other players do 
not have, but we are fair in listing what we don't have as well. For 
example, we do not offer RFB&D support and the Victor Reader Stream 
does. We will have that in the next release of the BookSense firmware, 
but it's not there today. We also don't have multiple languages 
available on the BookSense. Since GW Micro is authorized to sell only in 
the U.S. It was decided that only English would be offered. Whether this 
will change is still in the future to be decided. The BookSense buttons 
are not as uniquely shaped as the Victor Reader Stream's buttons and for 
some this has caused some concern since the Victor Reader Stream's 
buttons have different shapes and are spaced apart more than the 
BookSense. So I would still say that although we do want people to buy 
the BookSense, we realize it's not for everyone and we point out the 
differences when asked.

Many thanks.
