I have both an IPod touch and a victor stream, and I use both. I find the stream great at night because of it's sleep timer. I can set it and it turns off if I've fallen asleep.
My Ipod doesn't or at least I haven't found the function to allow it to auto switch off. The only problem I really have with the victor stream, is that it at least mine which is about a year old, is limited to 16gig sd card storage. So my Ipod has more storage capacity. But the stream plays more book formats than the Ipod. Each has it's good and bad points. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionar...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Olivia Norman Sent: Tuesday, 15 June 2010 1:57 a.m. To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: some more questions about streams and macs Wonderful!
