Certainly one of those "I'll do it from my iPhone" kind of guys yes, for me the
Victor Reader Stream purchase would just be wasting a whole heap of money,
another list member put forward this view quite some time ago, long before I
had a chance to play with Voice Dream.

Hi,
I use Voice Dream quite often. However, I still depend on my VR Stream if I
am away for hours at a time because I am not interested in spending the
required cash on a juice box in order to replace my existing iPhone case.
Therefore, I still need a source other than my phone for extended hours
If you are going to be doing that much listening on your iPhone I hope you
have a backup battery. That is one good thing about having a separate book
reader. You don't run out of battery when you need to make a call.

Yep absolutely right and that was one of the main reasons I was looking at the
Stream.
External battery solutions thankfully are a lot less expensive than a Victor
Reader Stream I have some 1MHA USB battery packs here so - If I need more
power - I just put one of those into my pocket and pl

independent voices from that of the iPhone.

hi,
well Victor streem 2 or whatever they prefer to call it is a real charm.
You can listen to radio, look up stuff on the net, and a whole lot more, so
comparing it to a simple iphone app isn't comprehensive.

Again, I'm not discussing this to get into an argument about the virtues of a
Victor Reader Stream, if you don't have an iPhone then all well and good, but
if you have an iPhone etc then would you really want to spend $400 for much of
what you have already?

Here's a review of the Voice Dream Reader IOS App, it appeared in the AFB

Hi Dane,
Well you can't compare apples and oranges.
A physical hardware unit whith lots of real keys, and various good voices to
choose from, lots of navigation features and such can't be compared to an
app. Or at least only partially.
But I must admit it's a real nice app. I have both a Victor
Hello Dane,
Do you know, what is the difference between the lite and the full version of
Voice Dream?

Yes, I got also an IPhone and five other players. They all help me and
I will never use the IPhone primary for my reading or music needs. The
apple system is not good enough for that and besides, its much easyer
for example to activate the sleep timer or just to quickly skip to the
next radio stati
I love the stream. It has real buttons, rather than touch screen, I wish
they would put a phone in the Victor.

actually you don't need to since you can read talking books with the bard
app in the states. on the IPhone. A lot of us had streams before the IPhone
however, so we have the best of both worlds.

I was one of those who had a VRS before the Iphone and now I have also a
Milestone 312, much smaller than the VRS and with better sound, that also
can be authorized for NLS books.

Thanks.

Now that I well and truly have this radio I thought it time to make a couple of
audio samples myself, this one comes from ABC News Radio and I recorded it
using my iPhone, my Zoom H! recorder has developed a fault so I've ordered
another.
Note the very nice clarity and wide AM band, its a real
If Voice Dream supports this format then yep! read to your hearts content on a
Braille display, I don't personally know whether Voice Dream does support this
format as I've not tried it.

I should also point out that the review was conducted quite some time ago and
the Voice Dream App has been updated several times since that review was
written.

I'm interested when you say "Easier" as its really subjective because there are
so many ways to do things on an iPhone, I suggest perhaps that you download the
demo of Voce Dream and try it for yourself before saying that tasks are easier
to perform on one device than another.

Reality is that some folks may not have the money to waste on aal kinds of
gadgets. They may want one thing that can do as much as possible for them.
