Hello. In case I didn't make this clear earlier on other posts. The new
firmware will be fixing issues as well as addressing bugs which have
been reported. The bit you mention about the sleep timer and the ability
to play multiple audio files as one book is not a bug but a design in
the software. Remember that a bug can be a subjective term. In any case,
rest assured that it's not just enhancements which are being addressed.
So I must apologize if I lead you to believe otherwise. Trust me, I'd
like to see bugs fixed as well. And FYI, there are messages on this list
and to our support which have indicated that the lack of a Bluetooth
hotkey was a bug. So it comes down to the fact that some things which
are changed affect those who really use such features. If you are a
person who is tired of always going into the bluetooth menu to turn it
on or off, then the number 2 tidbit would look like a bug fix to you.
Many thanks.

HI,
I can really apprecieate new features
Especially, those that improve navigation.
My concern is that the BS bugs and other performance issues are not going to
be addressed. Similar to what has happened with jaws and window eyes!
Personally,
a hot key for toggling BT on/off is a nice perk however, I would rather see
the hot key dedicated to the sleep timer. The sleep timer is likely used
more often then BT.
I have heard absolutley nothing regarding the playback issues concerning
multiple files within a foler tree.
I have heard nothing about the sleep timer bug fix! Nothing about the Blue
tooth and batetery life issues! Nada! Bupkiss!
My point is that HIMMS should be fixing the bugs and enabling access to
contect rather then adding a feature that only effects XT
owners and, quite frankly, is nnot going to be used that often given the
bugs in the Blue tooth stakc!

Subject: [GW-Booksense] New BookSense firmware teaser number 2
Hello. Last Thursday I wrote to give a small teaser for the up-coming
firmware for the BookSense which we are testing. We don't yet have a
release date for this, but in the mean time I figured I'd give a small
teaser.
Bluetooth hot key. For those of you who have the BookSense XT with the
Bluetooth capabilities, you can now turn the Bluetooth feature on and
off by pressing and holding the number 6 for 2 seconds.
This means that if you want to toggle the Bluetooth state, you don't
have to wade through the menus to get there. The menu method is still
there however.
Many thanks.
