Hello List,
Besides the obvious of,Bookshare not having a particular book, what other
advantages does the Kindle app have over using Bookshare to access books? I
will check Bookshare first to see if the book that I want to read is there to
download because of the ability to download the book
Thanks very much.

Why is your subject line about voice dream and you asking about something

you can use Voice Dream with bookshare, so you highjack the subject and go off

You do not have to buy Read2Go.
If you have a BookShare account you could buy either Voice Dream Reader or
Read2Go.

After you log into bookshare and your authorization is approved, be
sure to double tap the enable button or bookshare will not be enabled
when you return to the voice dream screen that tells you what you have
