Well I can understand your point. Price is an issue when it comes to the VRS 2.

I'm just glad it has been around for my own personal entertainment needs. I keep it plugged up and on 24/7 wired up to my trusty Magic Box II mini speaker via the 3.5 jack. Hasn't let me down yet.

If another audio player does hit the market that offers similar accessibility functionality that rivals the VRS 2. And it has Bluetooth capability, 32 - 64 GB of internal storage and provides propriotory apps to use some parts of Twitter and Facebook.... I would pay a small fortune for it!

Hopefully Humanware or another company will improve on the VRS 2 in the very near future.

Kenni, It does not allow for online downloading of those books,
because its not mainly pushed to the US market and podcast need some
work, but what it can do, it can do very well. What is also the use of
having a player wich will alouw you to search data bases and download
bookshare and such but then they not always commited to the player? Or
they use bad hardware and make you pay fru your neck? This player is
3000 rand and not r7000 rand like the stream currently.
