With the previous VR Stream firmware update, I couldn't activate 2
Audible accounts on one SD card. That was annoying to me. It was an
Audible problem, but still it was a problem. Ain't nothin' perfect
in this old world!

There is, for me, an irony to this discussion. It was the comments

stream and caused me to wait for the BookSense. I have not had the
troubles with the BookSense most people are complaining about so
perhaps I've been blessed. (Those who know me would consider this to
be most unlikely.) Anyway, my sympathies for those having problems,
gratitude that my problems are as limited as they have been, and
pleased at how many of those problems will soon be fixed. I suspect
that the level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction varies with which
function of the BookSense one considers most important. Perhaps had
the BookSense aspired to be less than it is, the problems
encountered would be seriously reduced. On the other hand, far
fewer of us would have been interested in a perfect gizmo that does much less.

Hi, Chip. I'm really glad you never had problems with your stream,
but for the first six months or so that I owned mine, I had endless
problems with it turning itself off for no reason and I would
constantly lose my place in my book. Eventually, I figured out that
something was wrong with the battery contacts, and the problem got
resolved, but then the stream developed a habit of skipping while it
was recording. I never was able to figure out what was causing that
one, so just worked around it as much as possible. My point is that
over all, I had far more trouble with the stream then I've ever had
from the booksense. The booksense has only completely locked up on
me twice, and taking out the battery and replacing it solved the
problem both times. Further more, I'm feeling extremely confident
that a number of issues will be resolved when the next Booksense
firmware is released.
This is a good discussion to be having, but I just want to make sure
that people who are on the fense about which product to buy are
aware that the stream isn't quite as perfect as its supporters are
making it out to be.

Bob,
You may not agree with what's said, and that's your right; but, you
shouldn't try and stop others from answering questions, or discussing the
issues, and that's exactly what you're doing when you denigrate their
postings by referring to the "dead horse" and "lighten up" and so forth.
if you think the stream had just as many problems when it came out, fine,
that's an opinion. I had it right from day one, and I *never* had a lockup,
or any serious problem.

As has been noted on this list several times, the VR Stream has been out for
several years. The Book Sense just came out.
Let's ease up a little and give the Book Sense a chance when the new updates
are released.
The horse was dead quite a while ago.

Jeremiah 29:11-14 (Amplified Bible)
11For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the
Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to
give you hope in your final outcome.
12Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me,
and I will hear and heed you.
13Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital
necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.(A)
14I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will release you
from captivity and gather you from all the nations and all the places
to which I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back
to the place from which I caused you to be carried away captive.
