In addition to what has been said already, I had a brief look at the I-Tell at Sight Village when it was launched. I actually thought it was a very clever device in that it allows you to use any iPod except the iTouch and iPod Shuffle devices. From what little I saw of it, I thought the voices weren't too bad compared to some I've heard. As long as I could hear what I am selecting to play, I'd be happy with that. I'm still yet to try out a Nano to see what it is like with the built-in speech menu system.

I know a friend who's got an iAudio, but can't remember what exactly it is, apart from that it's a hard drive-based player. -- Chris Hallsworth E-mail: CH9675@xxxxxxxxxxx MSN: CH9675@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: chrishallsworth7266 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Erica" <rebellion220@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2008 12:31 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: The i-Tel >I heard it at sight village and it was fine to me, It was dectalk. > What's the iAudio? > > Erica. > -------------------------------------------------- > From: "Chris Hallsworth" <christopherhallsworth71@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2008 9:58 AM > To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: [access-uk] Re: The i-Tel > >> The speech on the I-Tel, in my opinion, sounds very robotic and not >> clear.
