Hi Dean, I looked at the bookport at www.aph.org, and I had a couple of questions. It says the unit is small, but could you possibly give the measurements to give me a better idea? It says it can read plain txt files that you load onto the unit. Is the voice included with the unit a good sounding one? And do you know the size of the flash card that comes with the unit? Just wondering, and it does sound like a really nice unit! Thanks, Chris
