Hi
It would be a help if there was a site where we could check the latest
news on the new bookport.    Somewhere we could also make suggestions
for features.  I hope that the new bookport does include a decent
speaker, the comments I have heard about the Victor Stream say it has
a very poor under powered speaker.

I would also like the new bookport to have variable speed and pitch
control for playing of audio files on the fly.  The Stream has this
feature but I do not know how well it works.
