    there are other units out there that can be used about as readily as the 
IPod units and usually cost far less, 
    see listings below (just a quick grab of sites)

    Hello everyone,

    We have several models of Sansa portable media players which have been
    set up with Rockbox, making them talking players and completely
    accessible.

    The menus are spoken as are the folders and filenames.  You can find
    out the time and date with the press of a few buttons and find out the
    battery charge level easily.  The battery charge lasts a long time, up
    to 20 hours on a charge.

    These players play MP3, WMA, OGG Vorbis, FLAC, AAC, AIFF, WAV, and
    more.  They have FM stereo with plenty of presets, and you can record
    from either the radio or from the built-in mike.  You can expand the
    memory by using microSD or microSDHC memory cards.  They also have
    great bookmarking capability.  They come up just like a regular USB
    flash drive, and you can just copy and paste folders and files into
    them.  There's no need for media management software and the
    accessibility problems inherent in most of those.

    They come completely set up and talking right out of the box.  The
    package will include the player, earphones, and USB/charging cable.  A
    quick-start guide and Rockbox manual for the player will be included
    on the player itself as will be a couple of utilities for use with the
    player.

    We also offer several accessories for these players, including a
    leather flipcase, a wall charging unit, and several microSDHC memory
    cards.

    Our prices start at $41.99 for a 2 GB model, and all of our players
    are less than $100.00.  We have 2GB, 4 GB, and 6 GB models.  Shipping
    and handling is free to the US and Canada, and international orders
    are just $9.99 extra for priority mail shipping.  We offer at least a
    90-day replacement warranty.

    Click the links in my signature for more information.  If you should
    have any questions after checking out the website, you can contact me
    at:  accessibleelectronics@xxxxxxxxx

    Best regards,

    Laz

      no no no no,
      They now have a 6Th gen Nano.
      It has a touch screen and a full screen reader (Voice Over) not like in 
the previous ones.
      They make 8 and 16 GB.

        Hi just wanted to add that I have an ipod 4th genaration. Which has the 
storage of 16GB I mention this because I didn't see that on the list. So unless 
its been over looked or maybe apple don't do the 16GB Nano anymore, well I just 
thought I'd mention it.

        Any iPod touch/nano/iPhone. Very user friendly and they have a build in 
screen reader. Also, iTunes, the program you must have in order to use those 
devices, is very accessible with jaws. The iPod touch comes in 3 flavors, 8GB, 
32GB and 64GB. The nano comes in 2, 4, 6 and 8GB and the iPhone comes in 16 and 
32GB.

        Hi all.

         

        Can anyone advise on an mp3 player that's easy to use with good memory?

         

        Cheers.
