The DT is almost ready for NLS content. People just need to be patient and willing to give APH time to sort and make arrangements with NLS and I don't know how quickly NLS is to do what they need to from their sides so its both parties but I hope for your guys sake NLS support will be available for all devices.

As Aidan says, there is no price yet. It probably will be made known later this month or when its released. It should play NLS Rus. I don't see wy it wouldn't. I can understand audable but NLS shouldn't have any problems on this new device.

Hi,
For my part, I hope it does Audible enhanced audio. None of the Plextalks do that so far, and it's time they did.
They are so ahead on some things, and so behind on others.
All the best
Steve

I like the sound of it It sounds similar to the DT in some ways but it sounds like a real nice machine. I hope all plextalk users can have the ability to upgrade from their pocket to this new lineo pocket. Thanks Aidan, nice article. Plextalk is a great company.
