RE: NLS CARTRIDGES
The only limit on a thumb drive that works is the size of the thumb drive. Each book from the library is a different size. So if you add up the size of x number of books and that size is still less than your thumb drive, then all those you added up will fit. I've had 14 books on one 8 gig thumb drive and still had about 4 gigs left. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Christopher Chaltain Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 2010 3:09 AM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: NLS CARTRIDGES I'd check out the BARD Talk web site, and the devices page in particular.

Or, you may have a drive with a sleeve, so you have to push on a sort of button so the drive will slice in the sleeve, exposing the connector. earlier, DJ DOCTOR P, wrote: Hello Tom, If you feel the right side of your player, you will find a headphone jack.

Re: Cables for NLS cartridges and the BARD Talk web site [was RE:Wheredo you download updates to your digital talking book player?]
Hello Tom, If it's a standard USB flash drive, it will plug right in to the USB port that's located on the right side of the player. I was the one that said that you'll have to wait a month to get the cartridges from AMERICAN PRINTING HOUSE. I called them Friday morning to place a credit card order for 2 of them. I was told by the rep, that they were on back order. She tried to talk me in to placing the order anyway, but that didn't make any since to me to charge that to my credit card then having to wait a month before I have them in my hands. If this other website that I've been hearing about has them in stock, I will get them from there. Only one question though, do they take credit card orders over the phone? My best regards.

Tom, what do you mean it doesn't fit the machine? There's a USB port on the right hand side of the machine, it's about half way to the back, right behind the headphone jack. When the machine is shipped, it'll be covered with a small plastic cap. The cap just pops off, and the flash drive should plug into that port with no problem.

Hello Tom, If you feel the right side of your player, you will find a headphone jack. Right behind it, is the USB port. It does have a plastic cover over it. If you remove that cover, the USB port will be exposed. Right there, is where you will plug in your new thumb drive. Hope this helps. My best regards.

This will have a full sized male connector at one end and a full size female connector at the other end. Note that due to the housing on the NLS cartridge, many USB extension cables aren't going to work, and you may find it best to buy a cable from ILA, APH or Perkins especially designed to work with the NLS cartridges. I know this has all been discussed on this list before, but I just saw this message today and figured I better clarify. Also, as mentioned on this list, the BARD Talk web site is a treasure trove of good information. It's also well organized and well thought out. I think it will clarify a lot and won't appear as contradictory as separate posts to a mailing list may seem to be.

RE: Cables for NLS cartridges and the BARD Talk web site [wasRE:Wheredo you download updates to your digital talking bookplayer?]
Hi Tom. Sounds like you got a USB drive like I have. Grab each end of it, and gently pull. You should get one part that protects the USB port, and the other part, which is the drive. Also, grab the ends so you have the flat part between your fingers. Hope this works for you. By the way, APH won't have the cartridges in stock until the end of May, at least that's what I heard. Don't work too hard. Kevin Minor kmi...@windstream.net To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

Re: NLS Cartridges
When I bought the cartridges from ILA they were 1GB in size as far as the capacity went. The cost was $14.95 if Iremember co5rrectly. The APH cartridges are 2 GB in capacity and cost about $12.00 The APH cartridges are sent free matter. I like to use the cartridges instead of a jump drive so I won't rip the jump drive out of the player by mistake when carying the uhnit. The cartridges are safely inside the unit when installed.

Can any of you describe what the NLS talking book cartridges look like and what kind of USB cable do I need to use to connect this to my computer's USB port in order to transfer the downloaded books. I understand it will show up as a removable drive in My Computer or Computer area. No problem there. No problem moving/copying it to the cartridge and then inserting the cardtridge into the NLS Talking Book player. I called my local library to see if the player was available and it was. I got the advanced model. I heard a very good podcast about this player on blindcooltech.com if you want to learn more about it. Right now I am waiting for the unit and never touch one of these cartridges. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: NLS Cartridges
Petro, Have you contacted your local Braille Foundation outlet or regional rep.? They may have more information for you. Are you registered with the BARD?
