Hi! Okay, I don't have a Book Sense but I do have a Victor reader Stream.
One thing I like about the Stream is that all prompts and messages are recorded in human voice rather than having to rely on a software voice synthesiser so you won't miss any alerts, prompts or errors which Victor is trying to communicate to you.
I'm also told that there are some major software upgrades for Victor coming in the near future, one of which will allow you to store your recordings in a different format such as wave for transfer straight to a PC or Mac and that's about time too! and this has been my major gripe about the player from day one - particularly given that I use a Mac most of the time and there's no way of converting files from the Victor's format to something standard with the Mac, this should fix the problem.
The other slight annoyance I have with the Victor Reader Stream is its incredibly slow rate of transfer using USB cable and I'd be interested to hear an explanation from Humanware as to why this is, I can only hope that transfer speeds are faster on the Book Sense. If you're prepared to be a little adaptive then the problem can of course be solved by purchasing a memory card reader but make sure you read the manual first so you know what goes into what folder on the card, how to arrange things etc.
