The I-Pod Shuffle has buttons for navigation, unlike the touch screen of the
other models. The basic shuffle holds 512 Mb. Plenty for e-books or music. It's
very small, and convenient.
I bought one for my daughter and she loves it; it came free with an AUDIBLE.COM
subscription. The shuffle is $129.99, but you can find deals on it on the web.
I know I said e-books, but I might be wrong about that. Another handy device is
Book Port or Book Courier. These devices are handy and can handle many file
types, including text, audible files, a number of e-book formats. Down side is
that they are $350-$395.
I'm in the process of deciding which I want to purchase for myself.

Wes is having a birthday and I want to get him an MP3 player or an IPod. He
is blind and attends haemodialysis three times a week and gets thoroughly bored
if the radio reception is bad. I thought one of these MP3 players or IPods
that I could download eBooks or Podcasts for him might fill the bill. These
gadgets are foreign to me, however. It would have to be something to work
one-handed. Any suggestions as to model etc? - Jessie Neagle
