There are tactile markings in the battery compartment.

My point about the headphones was not that people didn't like them or found them difficult to use, it is about aph and good design of equipment for people who can't see. Both the headphones and batteries can be used the wrong way round and as this equipment is designed for people who can't see the print markings on the headphones or the symbols in the battery compartment surely aph should have have had enough experience to have thought about this issue and got it right.

Also external speaker The belt clip might not be such a good idea but I don't want to use speakers from radio shack as someone suggested basically because I don't want lots of extra wires all over the place. There are times when the unit being equiped with a speaker might be of use. I came across a device called a griffin for an apple ipod, if you don't know what it is basically it is a small box with a 3.5 hack sticking out of the bottom of it and it sits on top of the ipod, it makes the unit a bit longer. I haven't tried one as I don't have an ipod but I would think aph could design something similar that when installed would look as if it was part of the bookport, they could either put a dummy usb plug to stop the speaker more stability or put a real usb plug with a socket in the top of the box so you could still plug in the usb cable with the speaker atached.
