Hi stacey, yes, once you extract a Bookshare book using your password, the DAISY material from Bookshare is a standard text only DAISY book and will work well with KeySoft 7.2. In fact, in my audio demo whose URL I am about to post, you can hear how cool it is to read a newspaper from Bookshare using DAISY. It's so much more efficient and fast than doing so on the Web.

HumanWare will be releasing KeySoft 7.2 early in the >4th quarter of 2006, making your BrailleNote or VoiceNote even more useful >and efficient. > Whether you have a BrailleNote or VoiceNote mPower, a BrailleNote PK, or a >BrailleNote or VoiceNote Classic, there is a version of KeySoft 7.2 that >will be available for you.

What's in KeySoft 7.2? >Working with Files Is Easier (available on all models) >KeySoft allows extensive manipulation of files from any file list. Anywhere >you can see a list of files, you can copy, erase, move, protect, unprotect >and rename a file. Now, it is possible to mark files for action. Move >through a list of files, mark those files that you need to take action on, >and the file manipulation commands can be applied to the group of files. >Now, when you look through a file list using the Directory option in File >Manager, pressing ENTER on any file will launch its associated application. >Pressing ENTER on an mp3 file for example will immediately cause it to start >playing in the Media Player. In any file list, it is now easier to get it >sorted. You can still sort files alphabetically as you have always done, >however you can now also sort by date and by size. Sorting by size is a >great way of finding those pesky large files that are consuming FLASH Disk >space. Sorting by date makes it easier to trace the progress of a project >whose files are contained in their own folder. e-mail Signatures (available >on all models) KeySoft 7.2 adds the ability to set up two e-mail >signatures. Configure an e-mail signature for messages you generate, and >another for messages you forward or reply to. You can see the text of the >signature right in the body of any e-mail message you create. Statistics >Support in the Calculator (available on all models) KeySoft 7.2 offers >intuitive, powerful statistical functions in KeyPlus. Create data sets >within the Calculator using a special data entry mode. Enter your data into >a KeyWord document, and paste it into data entry mode from the clipboard. >Import data sets from many common applications. Save data sets for later >use, and export them for use by other applications. Perform a wide range of >statistical functions on a data set using an intuitive KeySoft menu, or with >hotkeys. DAISY Support (available on BrailleNote and VoiceNote mPower, and >BrailleNote PK) Your BrailleNote or VoiceNote is about to become your >digital book player. HumanWare is the world leader in DAISY playback >technology, through our Victor Reader products. Now, we have incorporated >Victor Reader technology right into KeySoft. Listen to DAISY audio books, >with the flexibility to speed up and slow down the narration and change the >tone of the audio. Set bookmarks, create text notes, and jump to any time >in the book. Text only DAISY books are instantly translated into your >preferred grade of Braille. With books that offer both text and audio, you >have the best of both worlds.
