Ring Humanware and they will sell you one. Hint, cheaper than the other people.

Hi Andy
In truth, of all the smaller, more portable players, you would be better off 
with the Victor Reader Stream.  It doesn't have a radio, but the buttons
would be more suited to you, and it is a very robust unit.  The BookSense,
Milestone and Plextalk Pocket are ok, but you just might find navigation
more difficult with the lack of feeling in your fingers.  None of the
desktop players have a radio in them, but the buttons again might be more
suited to your needs.  I guess it depends on the size of machine you are
looking for.


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi Steve,  I'm mainly  looking for one that has raised buttons  as I've
hardly any  feeling  in my fingers, I would like one with radio also  if
possible. I shall now go and look on RNIB shop website but if you could 
advise  me  further  I would be much appreciated Andy S

Hi,

Loads of them.  Booksense, Milestone, Stream, Plextalk players, and on.
What are you looking for in particular?
By the way, RNIB sells just about all of them, and they have the instruction 
manuals on their shop web site in Word format, so you can read before you
buy.

All the best

Steve
