will hold more than 2-gig; Christopher is right about the Bardtalk website
as a wealth of information can be found there! I guess I just need to

I may be wrong; however, I do not think that the NLS player can handle

The cable is actually a standard USB extension cable. A commercial cable
will work. The problem is that the cartridge has to plug into the female end
of this cable, and the housing around the USB blog keeps it from physically

It's my understanding that the library will be putting updates on the book

What you probably have is a standard usb cable. A usb extension cable is one
that has a female connection on one end and is used to add length to a standard
usb cable.

I use my Radio Shack-purchased flash drive all the time without a problem,

No, if you need a flash drive, you will have to buy one.
I found in my experience, that having a cartridge that was made just for the
NLS player, works best.
