Hi,
I've pasted the info from the RNIB online shop, all your questions are answered. A link to the page is at the bottom.

Available to pre-order. Stock due mid-July 2009. Easily record, and re-record, information using this versatile, pocket-sized, easy-to-use product and the self-adhesive labels. You can instantly play back the recordings anywhere simply using the PenFriend - no computer required.

Use to label: food items, including freezer food, and even include sell by dates and cooking instructions, film and music collections, household objects or even to organise letters and other paperwork as well as record shopping lists or leave audio messages.

It can also be used as a portable notetaker, record your message and keep track of it by placing the allocated label in a small notebook or in your diary.

Use in school to label classroom equipment and resources such as skeleton models, art material storage drawers and field trip findings. Pupils can use it to organise their coursework, add entries to their homework diary and access class timetables. * simply allocate one of the coded self-adhesive labels and record and store your message on the PenFriend. To playback hold the PenFriend over the label - it announces recordings specific to each label
