hi, i'm using an IRiver h120 player. basic functions are a breeze! i've not
had it long so haven't got into the complex settings, voice recorder,
equalisers etc. but it's all menu based, so would simply be the same process
as with most mobile phones, i.e. memorising them. there's a wired remot
control wich gives the easiest access via 2-way rocker switches.
what you have to watch out for in a lot of new players is the navigation
method. a lot more are using touch-sensative screens or scroll wheels. it
also depends on how much memory you want and how much you want to pay! mines
a 20GB hard disk player, which cost about £200.

Subject: [access-uk] Accessible MP3 players
Sorry iof this has been delt with here already and I would be surprised if
it has not.
How accessible are the mp3 platers that are coming on the market? I have
yet to get my hands on one but they seem to depend for navigation on an LCD
screen. Now I use my non accessible mobile by simply remembering the
sequence of keystrokes to get what I want. Will this work for me with an
iPOD or the Sony player that seems to be competing with it?
Any and all thoughts please!
