Yeah it is a shame especially considering how dam expensive they are. Oh and
yes it's still being sold even here in the good old US of A. IRTI has them.
I just saw it on their site. I was just brouzing around on there and saw it.
They have it for 300 and something.

Pity that you can't get cover or insurance for these things as you can with
mobile phones thus if anything goes wrong the problem can be attended to or
the product replaced.

Re: Plextalk Pocket Linio Talking Book Player

2016-09-17 Thread Dane Trethowan
Far from a stupid question, it was answered and just confirmed what I 
had been told.


I hadn't heard about this player for quite some time and just because 
its been discontinued doesn't mean the player is any better nor any 
worse than anything else.


I did consider the purchase of the Victor Reader Stream 2nd generation 
and the Plextalk Pocket quite some time ago and I was told at the time 
that the Plextalk ran slower than the VR Stream however the Plextalk had 
better hardware even though the machine was out of date so to speak.


Anyhow the main point being that if the owner is happy then all well and 
good but my concern would be - if the unit breaks down as the VR Stream 
did - just how much is the Plextalk going to cost to have repaired and 
the problem might very well be compounded given that the Plextalk Pocket 
has been discontinued for quite some time now, what 5 years?
