Patricia, it is my understanding that the VRS Library version has an
attachable cartridge holder that enables use of a cartridge, but what do I
know.  I guess my old brain will have to learn about cards, slots, thumb
drives and lots of other stuff if  I want the portability.  Thanks again.

: Cartridge attachment for the stream??
:
: It comes with one 2/gb SD card, that long cable to hook to the computer, a
: short one for hooking to a thumb drive, but the stream does not use the
: cartridges as the nls player does.
:
: I do not have speakers and hear it just fine without headset, but it's
your
: choice.
:
: Also for me since my pc is older like me,lol hehehehe, it didn't come with
a
: card reader. I had to get one of those because the long cable download was
a
: royal pain in the you know where,lol
:
: But the long cable with the male/female ends on it which is what it's
: called, attaches to one of the blank cartridges for the nls player right
: nicely and downlowads fast, but the stream's seems to be very slow for
some
: reason, so i don't use that just the card reader.
:
: Haven't used my Kingston Data Traveler thumb drive yet, it's 4/gb and the : stream has that shorter plug to hook that up to it, and the nls has a USB
: slot on the side of the machine.
