The portable Stratus12 M plays DAISY and MP3 books and music on CDs, SD cards and USB flash drives. Built-in text-to-speech also allows you to listen to computer text documents. In addition to simple 'next' and 'previous' navigation of audio files using 4 directional arrows, it includes a 12-key telephone style number pad for direct navigation functions such as going to specific heading, page, folder or file numbers.

The 4 directional arrows are great for reading novels, magazines, newspapers, etc. The 12-key number pad is helpful for students and professionals for navigation to specific pages in more complex and highly structured works such as reference and text books.

MAIN FEATURES:
- Multimedia Choice. In addition to playing CDs, the Stratus M supports additional media sources, including USB flash memory and an SD card. With built-in text-to-speech capability, you can even play computer text documents saved to these external media.

- Easy Navigation. Browse text and recorded DAISY books by chapter, section, subsection, phrase. Navigate MP3 books and music, moving by folder, file, and specific time jumps. Move through text files by sentence, paragraph, word, or even spell words.

- Bookshelf. All content is organized via the popular Victor Reader bookshelf categories. The bookshelves contain DAISY books, commercial audio books, music files, and text files.

- Never Lose Your Place. For every title, your Stratus will automatically resume reading where you left off, regardless of how many books you are reading.

- Bookmarks. The bookmark key marks important points in any type of book, audio file, or computer document.
