Hello,
I am glad this is working for you.
I use a bt keyboard, and I have tried many times, including just last night, and when I go to the bookshare website, I can log in just fine, and even download a book. The problem comes when I go back which the command is enter with b it takes me back to the page but when I go to another book to download, it starts downloading and then I get an error message saying the download has failed, and I must then perform a reset for anything to work properly.
This is my experience.
Robert

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] downloading second file fails

Hi Andrew,

Well, I just ran an experiment. For the sake of driving everyone
crazy with more on the bookshare site, I used it as my test site.

I am using an MPower qt-32 running keysoft 7. I am connecting to
the internet via my home network and a sandisk wireless card in the rear slot of the
MPower.

I went to the bookshare site and logged in.

I then went to the link to browse new books. I found a title I
wanted to download.

I followed the link for that book and downloaded the .brf file.

Then I was returned to the download page so I did a read with
left arrow which is the goback page command. (not sure of the bt equivalent).

I was then back on the list of new books. I went down a few
books further and found another book.

Again I followed the link for that book and downloaded the .brf
file.

Surprise!  It worked.

After downloading that book I hit another "go back" command to
get back to the list of new books and went down a few more.

I found a third book, followed it's link, and downloaded the .brf
file.

At this point I exited the bookshare site and figured it was time
for the moment of truth.

The bookshare books are compressed and if they are corrupted they
wouldn't decompress correctly.

I was able to decompress all 3 books and then I used the book
reader to double-check to be sure the entire book was there.

They were complete.

Don't know if others were using the "go to " command when
attempting to download multiple files from bookshare or any other site for that matter, but it really
might be worth a try.

Finally, I did notice that after downloading each book I was
returned to the download page for that book, but could not seem to scroll up the page above
the download link for some reason.

I hope this helps some and maybe gives one more thing to try.

Don
