Hi,
But as I understand it, these players all use only Windows software. In fact I directly asked the makers of Plextalk if they would make an application for the Mac and they emphatically said absolutly not!

Yes, I wholeheartedly agree. That's too much to play for a DAISY player. katieplayer is less than $20 and we agree only to arrangements where we can ensure the price will stay where it is (this is harder than you might think).

There are a good number of portable DAISY players available from various manufacturers: Plextor, HumanWare, Telex.
