Re: Update to Getting Started book
Realize there are two parts to book production at NBP. One part is the completed book by the author that is fully edited and proofread. Then it is turned into the various formats. It is NBP policy to make all formats available at the same time. People who would want an electronic version need to wait until it is recorded in audio and transcribed into Braille and embossed. the time frame for the second process is completely independent from the author.

So, my question is (Anna, I know you are on this list), when will the supplement be coming out? Also, I'm hoping in addition to a supplement, there will also be a full updated version? A third edition, basically?? When I get the book for my clients, I feel like it will be confusing to ask them to read the main book, but then ignore parts of it and refer to a supplement. It would be much easier to have everything in one book. Thank you, Julie Adkins -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Update to Getting Started book
Hello Julie, I'm so glad you've found the book helpful and plan to share it with your clients. I'm still working on the supplement. I hope it will be done soon. While I understand that having one book is easier than having a book and a supplement, it's simply not practical to do a whole book every year. The supplement will include all the lists of keyboard shortcuts, gesture shortcuts, etc., so you won't need the old book for that sort of basic information. I hope that will help. I hope that you and your clients will find the supplement helpful.

Re: Update to Getting Started book
Thank you Anna. Will the supplement describe how to navigate in the App Store And the Itunes app (since their layout is different now)?
