Hi, Apex can work with its own braille and text format files, as well as txt, RTF, doc (not docx yet), BRF and other file formats. It also supports Bluetooth headsets as well. As for folder structure, Apex doesn't require special folders to be present when reading books and such - it is just like any other computer. BTW, there is another BN list run by users - write to me offlist if you'd like to subscribe to it. Cheers, Joseph

When using an sdhc card does the unit set up any type of file structure as the stream does or do you just create folders as you need them? Secondly what documents will the word processor support? I presume .txt and .rtf shouldn't be a problem but what word documents will it read? will it handle .docs and will it reader the more recent word docs the name of which escapes me? I presume its not going to read a xl spread sheet. As for bluetooth, can I use a blue tooth head set? Should be a very interesting little device. I will be curious to see how it handles various web sites and email attachments. -- richard ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
