Looked at a couple of MP3 players yesterday. I checked out a sand disc model and a model that is made by iriver. Since I do have some vision I was looking for screen size and not necessarily use of buttons. It appears from the outset that perhaps the iriver might be a little more user friendly although the sand disc model had a button configuration that formed a sighted x. Flash cards run about 70 dollars in Canada, but probably could be purchased much cheaper else where. The flash cards come in a hard plastic case large enough to put a Braille number on it. You could organize your flash cards and also keep Braille index cards with corresponding numbers. If I had my druthers flash would be the way to go. A little on the expensive side, but well worth it, as with these devices there is no moving mechanical parts that can wear out. I also looked at a Sony 20 gig model. A little on the expensive side. The downside of this model is that you can not add a flash card. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Noseworthy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio" <Pc-audio@pc-audio.org>; "MIDI-MAG: Blind folks and their use of MIDI" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, March 18, 2006 8:45 AM Subject: Expandable flash MP3 players.
