Yes this is a real product [Via Conspicuously Lacking a Latin Title] All sixty six books of the Bible? I am almost tempted to order this just so I could call to complain about it having seven missing books. Especially since the original version of the KJV did contain those books and and weren’t labeled apocrypha then. Now with a Bible on a thumb drive I wonder if that would make the owner a Bible Thumbper?
Now a Catholic version like the RSV-CE with the Catechism and the documents of Vatican II with a good search program would be pretty cool. Though maybe I will market a Spirit of Vatican II USB drive. I should get a good markup since it would consist of a connector and a case and I wouldn’t actually need any flash memory for VII documents since they wouldn’t know the difference.

That’s a pretty good idea.
There should be one for “every thing you SHOULD have learned in Catholic school but didn’t learn because the teachers were mushy liberal Catholics who would pass you no matter what if you always said ‘spread the gospel’ even if it were to monkeys on every test somewhere”.
Now seriously– could somebody please make a copy of the RSV-CE available for the Palm Pilot?

I’d buy that!
Ooh, KJV on a thumb drive? Yummy!
I want those seven books back, though. Can you get a KJV with the rest of the books added in these days? Or did some Puritan just throw them all in a shredder way back when?

I’d buy the RSV-CE for the palm in a heartbeat. And if they threw in the concordnace, tant mieux!
I have bad memories of KJV. When I had hyperemesis and was in the hospital hopped up on Thorazine, I couldn’t concentrate enough to read NIV or NSB let alone KJV!!! I would read the same paragraph four or five times and still not get it. It was depressing.
How can we get someone to make the pda version of the Ignatius Bible with Catechism and a faithful Catholic commentary? Bible programs just don’t have Catholic products that aren’t stigmatized by “apochrypha” etc, and just try to get a commentary. There’s got to be enough demand if we knew where to focus requests.
Meredith,
Do you know the secret handshake? 😉
Yes, you can get it with those 7, but it also comes 7 more that aren’t actually Scripture. For some reason, the KJV translators included 1 Esdras, 2 Esdras, Song of the 3 Children, Bel and the Dragon, and Prayer of Manasses.
I have the Oxford World’s Classics edition ($18.99 paperback from Border’s.)
Oh, and The Story of Susanna, which is still only 6, not 7. DOH!!!
Hrm.. and what happens if you’re a Protestant, there’s a JW (or worse, an evil Catholic) at your door, and your computer dies?
Personally, I’d have to say that I still prefer the kind of Bible you can color and scribble in..
I agree with Elizabeth, partially. I could never color in my Bible which I got as a First Communion present! I’d have to get a new one to do that. 🙂
Just wanted to voice my support for the RSV-CE translation in Palm format. Anyone have ideas how to get this suggestion to those who can do something about it? I’m currently using the free Douay-Rheims (sp?) which I downloaded from Olive Tree. It’s a little awkward for me, but the price is right, and it’s been around.
