I enjoy Read to Go and Blio and would deffinitely read nls books on the I Phone. Even though battery life is shorter, I bought a Phonesuit Elite case that gives at least another full charge to the I Phone battery, and that's good enough for me!

For some reason, my victor stream quit working recently.

Rather than pay to get it fixed, I have decided to see what the status of the IOS app is around convention time. If something is coming out that is free or low cost, I'd rather by that than spend the outrageous fees human ware charges to look at Victor Streams simply to determine how much the repair will cost.

The stream has better battery life, but I’m thinking that given the versatility of the IPHONE, it might not be worth getting the stream fixed.

I think I would listen to far more books if I had an iOS app.

I've been looking forward to an NLS app for a long time, so the sooner the better I say!

Hello,

I would definitely use such an app. I already use Read2Go. So I am really looking forward to such an animal.

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t know how comfortable it’ll be to listen to NLS books on an iDevice. There’s something about hardware, the ability to physically press buttons to navigate that just seems more convenient than swiping around a touch screen to pause, jump segments, etc. Yes, I know there are headphones, but it’d be nice not to have to rely on those to quickly move about without them. I know, I know. It just takes getting used to a different way of doing things. Ironically, the Victor Stream has been the best piece of assistive technology I ever invested in.--Joe

Sounds cool.

If I were the NLS, and I'm most certainly not, I'd hope to have at least a prototype available for the summer convention season.

Time will tell.

What I've heard recently is that they are still working on an app. I heard that, at least the initial version, won't allow you to download talking books directly to the iPhone. You will have to download them on a PC, then move them over via syncing them, similarly to what was done with the initial Learning Ally offering.

Rumor has it that they will be demoing it at an upcoming conference for member librarians.
