Lori... Where do you get your books in MP3 format? Steve From: Lori Michaelson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, June 24, 2006 6:27 PMTo: QuadSubject: [QUAD-L] Audio books YUP! I like listening to audio books as well! Either alone or with my husband.

But many times they put me to sleep ... so I still enjoy reading at my 'over the bed' table in the evenings [regular books -- with and without big fonts].

Re: [QUAD-L] Audio books
Lori,I would like to know that also, as I could control it in bed from the computer, but not the library tape recorder . Do you get them free or do you have to pay for them? Buying them would be very expensive. I have not heard of another way.thank you so much for the information. How do other person's control their computer if they're not using Dragon? I have lost post about sip puff devices or any other way that people accomplish this. And Dana

I think that you still have to go thru your local library too. But its your choice, (lol) W

Re: [QUAD-L] Audio books
I know that our library has dozens and dozens of books on tape. By many popular authors. Yes, audio books are very expensive so it is best to go another route like the library or We usually download ours from the newsgroups [for free] and I am glad that my husband is also into listening to audio books to be able to do all the work for me. The newsgroups were always apuzzle to me but I never really looked into how they work and I always make things harder than they are. I have to have my husband operate my MP3 player or my tape recorder for me so I do not have any suggestions inthat area, Dana. Sorry. I CAN, however, also sit at the computer and listen to everything I am referring to as far as MP3 files [turned into books]. We keep them all on the computer so they are readily available. But I have so many other things to do on the computer that I prefer to listen to them when I am in bed, when we are driving in the car, etc..

Re: [QUAD-L] Audio books
There are extensions that can be placed on the tape player buttons so you can use your fists to turn it on off. I'll see if I can find a site with a picture. KK
