Kevin, there is a brilliant podcast on the blindcoolteck list on the DS50.  I 
have one and they are very good.  The DS30 and 40 are cheaper but all have 
voice prompts.

Good luck

Ron

hi all, i'm looking to buy such a device and i like the look of the olympus 
ds-30. i've just come across a website wich has all the usual specs for this 
model like other websites do, but it also says the following: "Voice guidance - 
Audible prompts to aid use by the visually impaired". has anyone got a ds-30? 
is this bit of info true? i don't have any useful sight, so navigation of such 
devices is something that concerns me. further up on the same page the website 
refers to this feature, but with the ds-40 as follows:
the Olympus DS 40 recorder has a voice guide that can be set to 'speak' button 
funtions outloud when pressed. This significantly aids navigation of the unit 
and can be used to describe the current settings and audibly confirm commands.

so i'm not sure if it's the ds-30 or ds-40 it's refering too. any help would be 
appreciated. the URL for the page is below:
