Thanks Ann.  You're right of course, although I was hoping folks
interested would pick up the phone number, but I can see where 
someone coming in in the middle wouldn't have caught it.

Anyway, to find out all about the Reader Project, call 
(800)321-8398, or (800)321-TEXT.  
 
They are offering beta test versions now.  The last price I heard
was $100.  It is basically a book reader and catalog manager.
The reader is used to read books, and the catalog is their
catalog of books to order.

The fancy communications options referred to their intention to have
you be able to download books you wanted and also catalog updates.
This is not available.

You order your books from them by phone or mail and get them on
diskette through the mail.

I hope that helps.  Hopefully, the recording has the latest,
up-to-date information on it.

thanks again,
  Jim Shaffer
