Well I guess it's not ideal but I currently listen to my mp3 player and Trekker while using a cane; I don't have the music too loud though. I reckon it's ok if I concentrate.Catherine----- Original Message ----- From: "Sunil" <bosley20@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 4:10 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: ZENSTONE - IN THE EAR HEADPHONESI wouldn't do it either if I was relying on a stick to keep me safe. Butone of the pros of having a guide dog is that you can be listening to stuffon your headphones while they guide you from A to B safely. --------- Original Message -------- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To: "access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [access-uk] Re: ZENSTONE - IN THE EAR HEADPHONES Date: 04/07/07 13:25Hi Sunil, I've done it a couple of times before I'd have to admit, still, I think that was silly of me and quite dangerous. Shan't be doing it again! :)Cheers, Amro ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sunil" <bosley20@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 12:52 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: ZENSTONE - IN THE EAR HEADPHONESI walk down the street listening to my mp3 player frequently - assuming Iknow where I'm going and I'm not in unfamiliar surroundings. My guide dog is great. I tend to stop listening to pay attention when I'm crossing theroad though. --------- Original Message -------- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To: "access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [access-uk] Re: ZENSTONE - IN THE EAR HEADPHONES Date: 04/07/07 11:50 Surely for a totally blind person to wear headphones of any type while walking in the street is extremely silly as far as I am concerned. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ian Macrae" <ian.macrae@xxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2007 12:40 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: ZENSTONE - IN THE EAR HEADPHONES Carol, there are the Zennheizer in-ear ones which are sold by Tapesense.Creative themselves sell a pair of in-ear noise reducing headphones. It's worth saying that these fit pretty snugly and claim to knock out about 90% of ambient noise. They certainly do kill a lot of it, and for that reasonmay not necessarily be what a totally blind person needs or wants. I've used them on the Tube with both the Stone and the text reader on my courierand they are very effective. But my wife is rather anxious about me usingthem in the street. They're sold under the Creative Zen brand and cost around £40. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Carol Pearson Sent: 04 July 2007 12:26 To: Access UK Mailing List Subject: [access-uk] ZENSTONE - IN THE EAR HEADPHONES Hi all, What headphones are folk using with the Zenstone that are similar but better quality to the Zen's supplied headphones. Ideally I need them just slightly smaller and with a bit of padding and to fit right in the ear. Any suggestions would be most welcome.
