What is a z zone -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of chris hallsworth Sent: 10 June 2011 19:41 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: new member with a question Hi all. I second everyone's comments about the iPod Touch. I have the 32 GB model, which can hold about 7,000 songs. But remember it is not just for music; you can also install apps to enhance your use of the device. One thing I recommend though is that if you are going to use it for long periods, I suggest you get a bluetooth keyboard. This will make typing and navigation on the device a breeze. I am not against the touch screen approach at all. It is very good and Apple should be proud of themselves. However typing is frustrating at its best and I personally wouldn't want to swipe and double tap for hours on end. So this is why I and many other blind iPod users go for a bluetooth keyboard. Hope this helps. Chat soon.
