[access-uk] Re: Accessible MP3 players

Hi Steve

I'd recommend an Iriver, if only you could get one.  I use Rockbox on that, and 
find it very accessible with that software, even if it is a bit fiddly to 
initially get it going.

I can't comment on any of the Ipod range as I've never gone down that road.  My 
8GB N91 does the job brilliantly for most purposes though.

I'm sure others will offer their thoughts.

  Hi All,

  I haven't been round for a while so apologies if this has been discussed in 
the past.  I want to get a new mp3 player which has a fairly sizable hd.  
Anyone got any suggestions?  How do people find the ipods with rockbox?  Does 
the Ipod 80gb classic support rockbox?  And does it read out the filenames or 
just spell them?  I believe the classic has support for ID3 tagging, does this 
work in the same way as say, the mp3 player on the N91 where it will 
automatically group tracks by album etc.  Also, with the Classic, can you just 
use it like another hard drive and copy your mp3's across, or do you need to 
use the Itumes software?

  Many thanks.

  Steve
