[bcab] Re: talking ipod mentioned by ian on In Touch

Richard,

You mention the 4th Generation Nanno. Do these come by default with 
capability for speech enabling the menus etc?

If so, could you or someone on the list please let me know if you are 
already using such a device as a blind person with speech and how you find 
it to use? How easy is it to set up and, if you import the speech from the 
PC via ITunes, is this effectively your speech synthesizer, e.g. Realspeak 
Solo Direct voices?

Is there anywhere on the web I can read further about this particular type 
of functionality? I guess there might not be much of it in Apple's 
standard blurb on the Nanno.

I am not too keen on using ITell, as this would involve me in another 
piece of kit, in addition to the Nanno itself.

Thank you in advance.

Many Thanks, With Kind Regards,

Hi,
 
I don't listen to In Touch so don't know which one precisely you're 
looking for, but...
 
 1.  The 4th Generation Nano can be obtained from various sources such as 
 
http://www.dabs.com
 
or
 
http://www.amazon.co.uk
 
This one is very small and uses iTunes to install speech from your PC onto 
the Nano.  The 16gb version costs arond £143.
 
 2.  The iTell works with the iPod Classic and can be got from
 
http://www.cobolt.co.uk
 
The iTell is a separate remote control which plugs into the iPod and has 
tangible buttons to press rather than the iPod wheel.  It costs around £70 
on top of which, of course, you will need to buy the iPod.
 
Hope this helps.
 
Regards
 
Richard Bartholomew
