Good AfternooneaYou have probably been told this in a reply alredy. The Bookport Plus is no longer being produced or sold. I am not sure of the status of the other devices you mentioned. Pauline

Hi All,

Do we have any standalone book readers comparable to the Victor Stream?

My Stream died this spring, so I've been listening to books on my smart

phone. This is fine, but I'm one of those people who likes a dedicated

device with hardware buttons. I have tried buying a new Stream.

Unfortunately, HumanWare seems to be going through a quality control

issue right now.

So I did some Googling. The Book Sense no longer seems to be on the

market. I'm not sure whether the Plextalk and the Bookport Plus are on

or off the market. And the Victor Trekk and Blaze EZ Reader are more

machine and more money than I want to do.
