Book Port DT
Loaded with many of the same features as APH's popular hand-held Book Port Plus™, the Book Port DT™ is a desktop-style Digital Talking Book player and recorder. The sleek design includes a large, clear-sounding speaker and easy-to-use controls.
You choose simple or full-featured! An included, removable mask hides all but essential controls, allowing for very simple operation of Book Port DT. Remove the mask, and you can access all features of this amazing player/recorder.
