It does work.
According to the Bardtalk FAQ's, the Kingston Data Traveler flashdrive might
work best but other do as well.
One bit of a quirk I have with my thumb drive is that when I connect it to
my player it says cartridge error, but if I pull it out and push it in again
it works fine.
Just a tip to share.

So let me get this painfully straight. You can download to a thumb
drive and then play the downloaded file on the NLS player by putting
the thumb drive in the USB slot of the player? If that is true, then
why would anyone purchase a special purpose cartridge when you can get
a thumb drive these days for next to nothing and use it for all kinds
of other things ? Has anyone actually done that successfully?

Why don't you download BARD materials to a thumb drive or blank
cartridge? Then you don't have to wait for snail mail.

Hi, yes that is true! But I still think it's discrimination that the

book to come in the snail mail.
I just don't understand why they had to make the cards incompatible

Hi
I was wondering if there is any software that can play
the digital books from the National Library Service (NLS)?
It seems like the only thing I can find to play the books is
a $350 portable player. I would be just as happy if I could
play them on my computer.
God bless,
Mark
