In light of a recent discussion about the Book Port, I thought that this might be of interest.

>Courier, and are a Unix or Linux user who has an interest in using your
>book reading device with one of those operating systems, then you might be
>interested in checking out the Unix Book transfer utility, or UBT for

>http://www.nfbcal.org/~buhrow/ubt 
>        UBT is a tool which allows you to transfer text files and indexed
>AUDIO files from your computer to your book reading device, using either
>the reading device itself, or a standard flash card reader.
>        It is important to note that the UBT utility is neither endorsed or
>supported by Springer Design or The American Printing House for the Blind.
>Those two companies produce MS-Windows based software to manage their
>products, and they do an excellent job of supporting their devices and their
>software.  They are, however, resource limited, and cannot answer any
>questions regarding the use of the UBT utility.  Support for the UBT
>utility is provided on the ubt-users mailing list, which is accessible from
>the above web page.
>        So, if you're a Unix or Linux user, and have a book reading device
>which you've always wanted to access using a Unix-based tool, check out UBT
>V0.90, and, while you're there, join the mailing list, and let us know what
>you think.
