Thanks, but don't really want a media player. I have a digital recorder and a iphone and a Ipad. I wanting something more along the line of a AM/FM radio like something like a boom box. sign, Joe Plummer (JP) joeplummer@xxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Allison and Chip Orange Sent: Friday, November 26, 2010 5:48 PM To: tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tabi] Re: AM/FM radio Betsy knows more about this than I do, but I know the free rockbox talking software can be added to a lot of standard media players. here's a link to someone who does this for you, and sells the media players ready to go for a blind person (they seem to be around $75, but I think they're remaindered and/or refurbished): http://www.talkingmp3players.com/sansa-e200-series.html These are the portible kind requiring headphones. Someone makes a "vision free" table top of radio for the blind, but I think it's around $200 with stereo speakers. It does receive HD radio though, where the Sansa media players do not. The booksense sells a model with a built-in fm radio (although it's primarily a digital talking book player). if you mostly wanted a digitalk talking book player, I think it and others can add an fm radio for not much more, but they're way above your $200 limit. hth, Chip Chip -----Original Message----- From: tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tabi-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joe Plummer Sent: Friday, November 26, 2010 5:02 PM To: tabi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [tabi] AM/FM radio Hi, do any of you know where I can buy a AM/FM radio with out it costing a arm and a leg?
