    Hi Stephen, welcome to the list. I am certainly no expert in the field, but 
I thought I'd reply so you had an answer quickly. I hate waiting for new toys. 
I'm sure many will reply with their suggestions and thoughts about what works 
for them. 
    One thing I'm quite sure about is that most will say the simplest option 
and possibly one of the cheapest is the ipod shuffle. You can get them in size 
one gig, and they have no real menus to navigate and a very simple button 
structure. If you check out Brian's page with the link at the end of this 
message there is a section on actual players and descriptions of them. You'll 
find many of your answers there. Then you could come back to the list with more 
questions. smile

    Happy ipod hunting,
    Jess

      Hello list.

      I have no idea of what technology is out there relating to ipod's, 
portable media players and the interaction with a blind person.

      My question is this and is quite simple.

      ~What is the best and most easy to use portable media player that i can 
use to play largely mp3 files on?

      I would like the capacity of the player to be at least 1 gb and the unit 
must be small and take a 3.5mm stereo jack so i can plug in any type of 
earphone.

      Is there software out there that would enable me to purchase an ipod or 
similar and install onto it with the unit then speaking the menus etc. to me?

      thanks in anticipation.

      Stephen
