    News Wire:

Laz MESA  will be discussing Rockbox, a replacement firmware which can be
used with some MP3 players and which takes advantage of the hardware
capabilities of the MP3 players. Not only does it surpass the
capabilities of the original firmware, but it also adds accessibility
to those MP3 players by enabling them to speak. He'll be
demonstrating the basic functions of Rockbox, accessing the time and
date, battery charge level, playing files, using bookmarks, using the
FM radio, accessing content on the
microSDHC card, etc.

Laz will be demonstrating these functions on the latest addition to
his line of affordable Rockboxed Talking MP3 Players, the Sansa Clip
Plus. The website to visit is: http://www.talkingmp3players.com/
He will then answer any questions from listeners.
