Subject: Re: [GW-Booksense] Booksense and the VR Stream
Hello. Comparisons are always kind of squirrely because people can get
very passionate about what they like and don't like. Also, people tend to
always remember the negative side of things rather than the positive.
Although I would suggest a BookSense for obvious reasons, I can tell you
that I have used a Victor Reader Stream in the past and both are good
products. To answer your specific questions, the BookSense speakers are
louder, yes, the BookSense battery does not last as long as the Victor
Reader Stream, and NLS books are supported in the BookSense. We are
working closely with RFB&D and hope to have the support for it when the
new firmware comes out. We are very close to releasing the new firmware
which will address many issues found in the 1.0 and 1.1 firmware as well
as adding new features.
Many thanks.

Hi All
I was wondering if anyone had any objective opion on the booksense
compared to the VR Stream. I have a stream right now, but there are
some things, like size and that you can put apple itunes files (?) on
the booksense and have them be usable with the booksense.
Now i am aware that there have been people who have talked about the
battery life in the booksense is not as good as the VR. However is the
speaker amplifier in the booksense offer louder output in maximum
internal speaker volume due to the 1 watt output , vs the miliwatt
output offered by the victor? is the speaker sound quality better or
worse then the victor?
Does the booksense do both RFB and NLS books at the present time? any
performance issues that still linger from from previous concerns that
were addressed on a few of the message boards a little while back?
Basically should i use what i have for the present time and maybe wait
until things improve a bit further with this device?
Thanks Zah
