hi and thanks. reading file names isn't a concern for me. i was more concerned 
about navigation of menu options etc. i'm off to check out the website you 
mentioned.

  I've got a DS50 which is in the same line and yes it's true.  Menu options 
are spoken but it does not have a text to speech engine so files you transfer 
to it or record won't be read out.  It's a fantastic recorder.  Look on 
blindcooltech.com for indepth reviews.

  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:
