Tom,

You should be able to get one at this point.  I finally received mine from 
Philly yesterday.  Ov course it's not small and portable like the stream but 
the sound is excellent and it's great for sharing books as I sometimes do 
with Kathy.  By all means, check into it but make sure you ask for the 
advanced player, not the basic.  Lou
