Like with any electronic device which seeks to optimize battery life, PTR1 has its own battery. The old APH and NLS devices use old custom NiCad batteries. Even if they worked with PTR1, which luckily they do not, they would give you much less battery life than the battery shipped with PTR1. So, let us stop bemoaning the end of the good old days.
Rather, it would be useful if nori and the other friendly folks at Plextor placed information about purchasing PTR1 accessories in a easy to reach web page. The info is there, but is very difficult to find. Guido Guido D. Corona IBM Accessibility Center, Austin Tx.

Surely, these folk realize that with an internationally available product, they have to make arrangements for the availability of extras over the entire market. The whole thing sounds odd to me.
