I do agree with you.She is phased by the fact there is no screen to look at and frankly too many keys.

Hello Niamh,Even though your next door neighbour can see, I'd say you'd have to go a long way to find anything as simple to use as the Victor Reader Stream. Although it's a Daisy book reader, of course it also plays MP3 files. And your neighbour would get the added benefit of having a means of playing audio books.How does she intend to get MP3s onto the device?
