Hi
Thanks for the credit concerning the web site, and I hope people find it
useful. I wrote the RNIB article. I think the installation of Rockbox on
the iPod products is more difficult because there is not an installer
program to automate the process. However I have prepared an audio tutorial
telling you specifically how to install it and demonstrating it available on
the site, so feel free to listen to that.
