Hi David,

While it is true that there are a few bugs with the Stream 3, I wouldn't say "crammed with bugs". There are a few rough edges, and we're working on smoothing them out. I can tell you that the release date of the Stream 3 was decided before HIMS announced their player. It was not a factor, nor did it "rush" anything on our end. I just came back from CSUN last week and I saw the HIMS player, it does seem like a nifty little machine. It has pros and cons, just like the Victor does. At that point, it becomes a matter of user preference! The Stream 3 is not out in the UK yet, indeed, it was launched only in the US. The worldwide release will be done in April. For your info, we're also working with RNIB for support later this year. Audible and BBC Sounds is also being worked on. I actually have a meeting with the BBC scheduled tomorrow! Thank you.

From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of David Griffith via groups.io Sent: Sunday, March 26, 2023 5:04 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [dap-uk] Hinns Daisy/Media SensePlayer EXTERNAL EMAIL - Be vigilant with attachments and clickable links. COURRIEL EXTERNE - Attention aux pi¨¨ces jointes et aux liens cliquables. I have pre-ordered the new SensePlayer from Hinns. Although I have not received mine I have heard that some have received it already? From reading on the Victor Reader lists the panic induced by the release of the Hinns SensePlayer has caused a bit of a dogs dinner with the early release of the victor Rader 3 Firmware which seems crammed with bugs and not really fit for release. Still it is not even being advertised on the HumanWare UK site when I checked last night. Only the Stream 2 and trek were purchased options. Anyway has anybody received the SensePlayer yet and got any first impressions? I am looking forward to being able to use VoiceDream Reader via smart connect from my iPhone in addition to the player capabilities. Apparently both BBC Sounds and Audible will be added as app op[options in the summer as these bespoke apps will b ported across from the Braille Sense where apparently they already work.
