You can't log in through ssh until the password has been set.

SO, DOES THIS MEAN THAT IFF I SSH TO SOMEONE'S ICON, TRICKY AT BEST  
UNLESS YOU HAVE A PIECE OF INFO OR TW IT WOULD SEEM TO ME, I CAN JUST 

LEAVE THE PASSWORD FIELD BLANK UNLESS THE PASSWORD'S BEEN SET?

Kevin,

The root password has been removed to prevent someone with Icon and
Braille plus knowledge from connecting to another owner's device over
an
SSH connection.  Leave the password field blank when logging on
through
the console, then set your own password with the 'passwd' command.
