Hello Drew:
I have the King James Version that I downloaded from web-braille. I
have it on my compact flash card, but I am also going to back it up on my
USB thumb drive. HTH.
Sincerely,
Jolena Foster,

>> My M Power gets a lot of stage time.

>>
>> The MPOWER has really helped me a lot in my church life.

>> I like the idea of reading hymns from it, but there is no way for

>> I would be interested in seeing what hymns you all have on your
>> BNS if you are interested in sharing.
>> We sing about 25% hymns and 75% new songs.
