Hi David,
If the IPod Touch works along the same lines as the IPhone, then you will be
able to turn on Voice Over by yourself. All you will need to do is hook up the
IPod to your computer, and as long as you have ITunes installed, once you
select the IPod from the list down the left-hand side you should find an option
which says "configure accessibility" in the "summary" or "info" tab.
Hope this helps
