FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

Tek Talk Presents:  Choosing and Using MP3 Players, Monday, May 19, 2008

The Accessible News Wire May 12, 2008, Indianapolis, Indiana USA

Are you trying to decide which MP3 player to buy, or would you like to know how to use your MP3 player more effectively? If so, Anna Dresner's new book,
A Pocketful of Sound, available from National Braille Press can help. It
compares and describes a variety of mainstream and adaptive players and
includes instructions for their use.

The Accessible World is excited about having Anna Dresner as its presenter
during the upcoming regular Monday event. Anna will describe some key
features of the book. She will then demonstrate searching for and
downloading music from Amazon.com's MP3 site, eMusic, RealPlayer, and iTunes
and transferring music from RealPlayer and iTunes to MP3 players. The time
is right for carrying a library of books and music in your pocket, and this
demonstration will help you learn how.

Join us at the date, time and place below where you will have an opportunity
to ask questions of this nationally recognized technology expert following
her presentation.
